Hi Sudip, I've already used these packages with one of my wiimotes on an earlier version of Ubuntu. And they worked fine.
I see that the packages wminput and wmgui are only available on Jammy (22.04) and above, based on https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=wminput I started a live-USB of Ubuntu Focal 20.04.6 on a PC, and apt indeed does not find wminput or wmgui. I suspect it's because of the python2->python3 switch, at that time. So I started a live-USB of Ubuntu Bionic 18.04.6 on the same PC, and could install the 3 packages (they don't show up in https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=wminput because this Ubuntu version is not supported any more) I can confirm that it works fine on Ubuntu 18.04: wminput displays a "Ready." message after pairing with the wiimote, and buttons/gyroscope of the wiimote have the expected effect on the Ubuntu desktop: move cursor or pointer $ sudo wminput <my-mac-address-coming-from-lswm> Put Wiimote in discoverable mode now (press 1+2)... Ready. wmgui also works fine on Ubuntu 18.04: sensors and buttons states are properly shown NB: after pairing the wiimote with Ubuntu 18.04, its leds are all off, just like on Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04. So what I suspected to be a "crashed" state of the wiimote seems to be its normal state with wminput/wmgui -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2042356 Title: [SRU] wminput crashes with ImportError: ... undefined symbol: PyVarObject_CallFunction To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cwiid/+bug/2042356/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
