Please see the appended patch. You have to apply it to your kernel tree and recompile the hid-wiimote driver. No other sources are changed so you don't need to reboot or install the new kernel. Just install the new hid-wiimote.ko module. One of the 5 input devices should then report the wiimote weight sensor data. (the input device with name "Wii Remote Balance Board"). >>Ouh, I see.

No. First: there are very restrictive time-constraints on most of these devices so user-input would be too slow. Second: The BlueZ maintainers don't like this approach. So just send an email to the linux-bluetooth mailing list and we will add quirks to BlueZ so new devices will work, too.
