hehe, maybe not. It's a SI Unit but for the weird american way of doing it I'd say about 6 inches or so. It's the same width as the sensorbar

here are some useful conversions that may help:
1 trillion microphones = 1 megaphone
2000 mockingbirds = two kilomockingbirds
10 cards = 1 decacards
1 millionth of a fish = 1 microfiche
453.6 graham crackers = 1 pound cake
1 trillion pins = 1 terrapin
10 rations = 1 decoration
100 rations = 1 C-ration
10 millipedes = 1 centipede
3 1/3 tridents = 1 decadent
2 monograms = 1 diagram
8 nickels = 2 paradigms
2 wharves = 1 paradox
sorry to be of topic, just wanted to throw some humor in

I have done all of the apt-get as well as
1: svn checkout https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot...xport/XBMC
2: cd XBMC
3: ./configure --enable-cwiid <-- (did not get Wii Remote: Yes)
4: ./build.sh CONFIGOPT=--enable-cwiid
and yet Wii Remote still does not work with XBMC, Ubuntu 7.10... Works with Wmgui though.
any help?

The WiiRemote is moved to a EventClient, check out tools/EventClients/README.txt
So basicly what you need to do is (if XBMC is downloaded to your home-folder):
tip: do ./WiiRemote --help for more advanced commands
Quote:The executable depends on libcwiid and libbluetooth and is compiled using
# g++ WiiRemote.cpp -lcwiid -o WiiRemote
The WiiRemote will emulate mouse by default but can be disabled by running with --disable-mouseemulation
The sensitivity of the mouseemulation can be set using the --deadzone_x or --deadzone_y where the number is
the percentage of the space is considered "dead", higher means more sensative.
Other commands can be listed with --help
The WiiRemote is mappable with keymap.xml where button id's are the following:
1 = Up
2 = Down
3 = Left
4 = Right
5 = A
6 = B
7 = Minus
8 = Home
9 = Plus
10 = 1
11 = 2
The name is by standard WiiRemote but this can be changed with the --joystick-name
So basicly what you need to do is (if XBMC is downloaded to your home-folder):
Quote:# cd
# cd XBMC/tools/EventClients/Clients/WiiRemote
# g++ WiiRemote.cpp -lcwiid -o WiiRemote
# ./WiiRemote
tip: do ./WiiRemote --help for more advanced commands

Been wrestling with this --enable-cwiid for half an hour, untill I decided to read the rest of this thread. 
So I compile WiiRemote, now what. When I ./WiiRemote, it just sits there.
Do I have to start this manually before I run XBMC or can I put it somewhere so XBMC starts it automatically?
Sorry, but it's all not very clear I guess...

start it. start xbmc. just trying is hard i guess
2008-06-03, 12:18
I'm at work, don't really have my Wii remote at my disposal now 
Wouldn't it be handy to have a folder where you can put things like this, so XBMC starts them automatically?

the idea is to run them as services using init scripts. you can already grab the deb package with them which i suspect does this, look around the forums
2008-06-03, 14:43
It should just sit there, if it doesnt you have no bluetooth. the event server is not feature complete and it will be able to wake clients when it is. still it will have to be running. some time i guess xbmc will have autostart abilities or atleast tell the clients to do so. anyway the wiki have a page, search for event server. im on my cellphone so i cant link
BTW the deb wont run as a service automatic yet, noone have found a good script to put it in i think

Thanks for the info

Cheered a little too soon... :/
I used the keymap.xml included with the v1.4 patch by Topfs2, copied it to /usr/share/xbmc/userdata and also to ~/.xbmc/userdata.
The WiiRemote connect just fine, I get the battery-level and all, but none of the buttons seem to work?

It's working now, but I used the keymap.xml from Topfs2's post in http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=33397
@Topfs2: First of all, thanks
Second, I don't quite understand what you mean by "it is like the one before the eventclients".
Can you explain a little?
