XWii software converts Nintendo Wii Remote input into X11 input.
XWii works by translating input from the Wii Remotes into X11 input like mouse movements and keyboard events. This feature is particularly useful for gamers who'd like to try out their favorite titles on their Linux devices without having to switch to a different console.
To get started with XWii, you'll need to make sure that you have Linux with X11. Don't worry if you're not sure about having it because if you are using Linux, you probably have X11 installed already. Besides, you'll also need a Linux-compatible bluetooth dongle or a similar device like the Belkin USB dongle that works great. Of course, you'll also need a Wii Remote too.
One of the best things about XWii is its simplicity. It's an easy-to-use program that requires only a few steps to set up everything. Additionally, the program features Python, which further improves its functionality and usability.
Lastly, with the newly released version of XWii, expect a more stable and bug-fixed software. The team behind XWii has fixed a nasty bug in disconnect-reconnect functionality - making the program run smoother and more reliable.
Overall, XWii is a commendable software that every Wii and Linux enthusiast should try. Its unique features make it a great addition to your existing tools, and its compatibility with Linux and Wii devices make it a perfect fit for gamers and program users alike.
