so i decided to start working my way through the code and found references to uinput in input/device.c this gave me another keyword to use in google and lo and behold this popped up:

- Add script to autoload uinput on startup, so the PS3 remote
 works out-of-the-box


sure enough i did not have this module in my kernel.
just building now in hope that this might be the issue
well that got me nowhere - still no events
but at least i now have a /dev/input/uinput

You need to press buttons on the remote for it to connect to the
computer. It will disconnect automatically after some time of idleness.

After that you need to use a new enough X server, or LIRC to get the
events to your X applications.
what causes the /dev/input/eventX file to be created?
ie. is it bluetoothd or hidd?
