under vmware wiican cannot recognize bluetooth stick but wmgui can

[bzdet99]

I have virtual machine (vmware) of ubuntu 11.04 inside ubuntu 11.10. After inserting bluetooth stick, vmware was taking control on it. Wmgui can recognize wiimote and everything is working fine. But wiican is telling me, that bluetooth stick is not present. I can see bluetooth icon and connect other devices. I have no problem under normal machine only under virtual.

I can't find any reason for that behaviour on a vm. I'll try and tell you.

I was also trying other posibilities. Wiican can see bluetooth in the share with host machine mode. However, I cannot force wiican to take control of the cursor of the virtual machine.

I was also trying this:

Xephyr -ac -br -noreset -screen 950x950 -mouse ephyr,,device=/dev/input/event2 :2 &
sleep 1
DISPLAY=:2 xfce4-session &
sleep 1
Xephyr -ac -br -noreset -screen 950x950 -mouse ephyr,,device=/dev/input/event5 :3 &
sleep 1
DISPLAY=:3 xfce4-session &

and run wiican on every xephyr server, with adding second cursor by xinput. With a normal mouse i can do everything and runing wiican also, except one thing. I cannot click simultanously (A) on two wiimotes, using normal USB mouse I can....

Sorry for not taking my time on this. I'll try wiican on vmware and vbox and tell,
It would be related with the way wiican detects the presence of a bluetooth device.
