ps3 dualshock on mac

[robotmonkeys]

I'm trying to get my ps3 dualshock recognized by boxee. It's correctly paired, and both nestopia and macmame find and can use the controller, so it's properly hooked up to the mac. However, boxee is ignoring it completely. My boxee.log says it loaded the PS3 controller mappings, but I don't see anywhere in boxee where to say that it should use the joystick.

The relevant part of my boxee.log is pasted below.

Any ideas on what's wrong here? Or at least how to get some better debug info?

I'm not sure which two you're referring to precisely but yes, this is the place to post about how to get a PS3 controller to work with Boxee software (which in this case, is installed on a mac).

@robotmonkeys, you might also want to search the forums on ps3 and/or on ps3 controller -- I do believe some folks have got this to work but I haven't followed closely. You might also want peruse the remote section of the forums.
