 +£12 Third party PS3 controller (SHANWAN) from Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07L6WX6JS
 +
 +The DualShock 3, DualShock 4 and Sixaxis controllers work out of the box when plugged in via USB (the PS button will need to be pushed to begin).
 +
 +The generic Bluetooth driver is the btusb kernel module. To load:
 +<code>
 +sudo modprobe btusb
 +sudo modprobe bluetooth
 +</code>
 +
 +check modprobe blacklist in case bluetooth was disabled
 +/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
 +##Disable Bluetooth
 +#blacklist btusb
 +#blacklist bluetooth
 +
 +
 +connect via USB
 +
 +Install the bluez and bluez-tools packages, which includes the sixaxis plugin. Bluez v5.48 and kernel 4.15 is required which include patches for third party PS3 controllers.
 +<code>sudo apt-get install bluez bluez-tools</code>
 +Then start bluetooth.service, 
 +<code>service bluetooth start</code>
 +plug the controller in via USB, and the plugin should program your PC's bluetooth address into the controller automatically. If not, the sixpair.c file can be compiled and used.
 +
 +You can now disconnect your controller. The next time you hit the PlayStation button it will connect without asking anything else. \\ 
 +Alternatively, you can hold the select button and the PlayStation button simultaneously (for a few seconds) to put the gamepad in pairing mode, and pair as you would normally. \\ 
 +Remember to disconnect the controller when you are done as the controller will stay on when connected and drain the battery. \\ 
 +Note: If the controller does not connect, make sure the bluetooth interface is turned on and the controllers have been trusted. (See Bluetooth)\\ 
 +
 +<code>
 +sudo bluetoothctl
 +scan on
 +</code>
 +
 +<code>
 +sudo apt-get install libusb-dev libusb-0.1-4
 +gcc -o sixpair sixpair.c -lusb
 +sudo ./sixpair
 +No controller found on USB busses.
