This is weird. Why does that patch work for you? Did you add the ID to
the "hid_have_special_driver[]" array? Because without it this
shouldn't work at all.

The log shows that the device is properly connected. And it takes 20
seconds until the device is automatically removed. So if you call
"xwiishow" in between these 20s then it should show up.

20s is actually the timeout that the Wii Remote uses during discovery.
Maybe this is really because the device isn't bonded. Can you try the
bluez patch I posted and connect _with_ bonding/authentication. So
don't select "without PIN" during connection.
With the bluez patch bluez will automatically generate the PIN and you
shouldn't be prompted for PIN input anymore.

Thanks a lot for testing this!
