Hey,

I don't understand the reason why plugins/sixaxis.c doesn't set the
device as trusted when plugged in.

It's because of security. If you trust a bluetooth device on Linux,
you're trusting it for all services.
Just as a side note: This is not a good security rule. Why should I trust a game controller on any other service then controlling my game moves?


Best regrads,
