I went ahead and tested the kernels again as you wish using uname- r to confirm. These are the results: 3.13.0-24-generic - works!!! 3.13.0-27-generic - broken 3.13.0-29-generic - broken 3.13.0-30-generic - broken 3.13.11-03131102-generic - works!!! 3.13.11-03131103-generic - works!!!
As you can see I checked for the latest mainline kernel and it also works. After installing the linux-image-3.13.0-29-generic_3.13.0-29.53_amd64.deb file that you told me to do I yielded the same results as before. I noticed the boot loader did not list the kernel however, so I uninstalled the stock 3.13.0-29-generic kernel and reinstalled the kernel you asked me to. It freezes at the login screen though. I inspected dmesg and have confirmed the following: It is the correct kernel "Linux version 3.13.0-29-generic (buildd@toyol) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) ) #53-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 4 21:00:20 UTC 2014 (Ubuntu 3.13.0-29.53-generic 3.13.11.2)" and it has fixed the problem with the PS3 gamepad. I don't really understand what is going on here. The kernel versions seem out of whack to me, but hey you're the expert. How can the stock 27, 29, and 30 kernels be broken while the non-stock 29.53 is not?
