I tested in Tribe 4 Gutsy Xubuntu and it appears to be working well now. connect the sixaxis via USB compile and run sixpair from http://www.pabr.org/sixlinux/sixlinux.en.html
then disconnect the sixaxis from usb follow instructions from above site to pair and connect. I had to run sudo: $ sudo hidd --server --nocheck -n press the clear middle clear button on the sixaxis and you should get something like: hidd[8332]: Bluetooth HID daemon hidd[8332]: New HID device 00:19:C1:xx:xx:xx (Sony Computer Entertainment Wireless Controller) then this may not be necessary: $ sudo modprobe joydev get a nice calibration program $sudo apt-get install jscalibrator $jscalibrator you should see the program respond to the sixaxis from bluetooth! Calibrate and save then try using zsnes. Zsnes seems to behave nicely with this joypad now.
