 Posted: Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:52 am Post subject: LIRC Issues [SOLVED] |
 |
|
(sorry if this is the wrong forum, i thought this is the only one that looks right)
Okay... where to begin.
Been fighting with this for what seems like an eternity, and today stumbed across a gentoo wiki page on how to set up lirc (looks dated, but i tried it anyway). Looks are decieving as it went totally over my head pretty quickly.
My hardware:
Logitech Harmony 670, Emulating a Hauppage PVR-350 remote
Silverstone LC20M-B Case with vfd/IR built in
there is a second (unwanted) ir on my tuner card.
Software:
MythTV (works flawlessly)
I have placed an already made lircd.conf for a hauppage PVR-350 into /etc/lircd.conf.
As the Silverstone VFD/IR combo is imon, LIRC_DEVICES="imon" emerge lirc.

15c2:0036 is the IR which i'm looking to use with lirc. Before getting my logitech remote i did manage to get the remote whch came wth the case to act like a mouse (it'd move the cursor all over the screen) but i did not manage to get it to work as a remote.
The questions that arose from the wiki entry are this,
| Code: |
EV="/dev/input/"$( cd "/sys/class/input" && grep -l 'X10' event*/device/manufacturer | sed -e 's,/.*,,' )
LIRCD_OPTS="-H dev/input -d $EV"
|
I don't understand the concept behind that; i guess its just incase the vfd moves across an input device but i don't get if i need to modify anything on that at all, or really what it does; the event*/device/manufacturer has to be changed or not?
the other question is, i don't have evdev module, is it a necessity and if so, does it matter if its built in?
i'll attach a full dmesg just incase there's something i missed
Edit: apparently my dmesg is too long. Will post it if necessary later =3

Update
/dev/lirc0 has appeared (woot)
/dev/lirc1 has appeared (not so woot)
/proc/bus/input/devices has lost the front IR device.

Still taking suggestions! 
EDIT: the vfd has decided to work, even though its missing under /proc/bus/input/devices. *goes crazy* |

fixed >_>
Turns out USBHID kernel module, doesn't work well with LCD / IR...
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
| Code: |
T: Bus=03 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 4 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=0e6a ProdID=6001 Rev= 0.07
S: Product=HID Keyboard Device
C:* #Ifs= 2 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=100mA
I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID ) Sub=01 Prot=01 [b]Driver=(none)[/b]
E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 8 Ivl=10ms
I:* If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID ) Sub=00 Prot=00 [b]Driver=(none)[/b]
E: Ad=82(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 3 Ivl=10ms

IF the driver is usbhid... rmmod usbhid, reinsert lirc_dev lirc_imon. if the driver is none, re-insert lirc_dev and lirc_imon. if the driver is lirc_imon, restart lirc and your modules should be there.
3 days ago this would've been alot more handy to know!
Thanks guys.  |
