[Papervision3D] hooking up my wii

[John Grden]

Thanks Emilio, I get passed the "skip pairing" portion just fine, then in
the next screen it says "select service" and there are no services listed.

If I open My Bluetooth places, and refresh, the wii shows up - but not
automatically.  I have to refresh to have it show up while holding the 1&2
buttons.

Then, when it shows up, I right click and say "connect device" - it then
asks if I want to connect to this Human Interface Device" and I say "yes",
but then I get the pairing screen and "skip pairing", while available,
doesn't do anything when clicked.  It just sits there.

I reinstalled my bluetooth software again just to make sure I missed
installing any features and it's the same.  The BlueTooth dongle I bought
was on the approved list for wii's so, I'm pretty sure this should work.

PS> what's the power button for on the wii?  It doesn't seem to do anything
when I hit it and I'm just wondering if it's not "on"

LOL
