 Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2010 2:01 pm Post subject: [SOLVED?]Lirc with livedrive_midi stopped working |
 |
|
Hi
Until yesterday, I've had working Lirc with my Audigy 2 Platinum ex, with livedrive_midi driver with rm-1000 remote on my gentoo ~amd64 system.
But yesterday I've re-emerged world, and updated system - and lirc stopped working :/
cat /dev/snd/midiC0D1 shows something when I'm pressing buttons on my remote, but irw shows nothing ...
What have I done to fix it:
- search bugs.gentoo.org for lirc error
- search google
- changing /etc/conf.d/lircd
- changing /etc/lirc/lirc.conf
- update lirc to 0.9.0_pre1
- downgrade kernel to 2.3.35
And nothing works :/ irw still shows nothing ... What changed, and what I'm doing wrong ? 
irrecord is trying to record keycodes, but in result file it looks like it recorded every key as code 0 :
| Code: | | KEY_VOLUMEUP 0x00000000 |
My /etc/conf.d/lircd file :
| Code: | | LIRCD_OPTS="-d /dev/snd/midiC0D1 -H livedrive_midi" |
my /etc/lirc/lirc.conf file :
| Code: | begin remote

Hi!
Your lirc.conf file contains duplicate remote definitions.
I suppose, two for rm-1000 and livedrive handle and cmss button is enough.

To restart lirc:
| Code: |
/etc/init.d/lircd restart
|
Do you have initial sequence in one of your startup files (IR sensor may not work without it)?
echo -e '\360\000\040\041\141\000\000\000\177\000\367' > /dev/snd/midiC0D1
or
echo -en "\xf0\x00\x20\x21\x61\x00\x00\x00\x7f\x00\xf7" > /dev/snd/midiC0D1
Could you show your ~/.lircrc ? |

Sorry, I've pasted lirc.conf 3 times - now it's ok, so I don't have any duplicate remote. It's lirc.conf from /usr/share/lirc/remotes/creative/lircd.conf.livedrive
And before emerge -e world it was working.
And I have that echo in mt /etc/conf.d/local :
| Code: | | echo -en "\xf0\x00\x20\x21\x61\x00\x00\x00\x7f\x00\xf7" > /dev/snd/midiC0D1 |
My .lirc
| Code: | begin
prog = irexec
button = vol+
repeat = 1
config = amixer set Master 3+
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = vol-
repeat = 1
config = amixer set Master 3-
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = play
repeat = 0
config = mpc toggle
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = next
repeat = 1
config = mpc next
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = prev
repeat = 1
config = mpc prev
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = stop
config = mpc stop
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = power
repeat = 0
config = sonata&
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = ok
# repeat = 0
config = smplayer -send-action pause
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = left
repeat = 1
config = smplayer -send-action rewind1
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = right
repeat = 1
config = smplayer -send-action forward1
end

Does /etc/init.d/lircd start OK ?
As i take it, livedrive's LED blinks when you push a button on your remote, right ?
Did you try revdep-rebuild ? |

I just ran into a similar problem and it is very strange. I too emerged -uDN world and lirc stopped working after I rebooted this morning. Doing "/etc/init.d/lrircd start" does start it. Then I had problems with HAL not working so I did a Ctrl-Alt-F1 to see if there were any problems at boot-time and the screen started to scroll and the last part of the boot process started up!
So after emerging world, I now have a problem that the boot process halts right after xdm is started (I presume) and only starts up again when I go back to the first virtual console. I will start a new thread on this topic. |

Yes, no errors in /var/log/messages and in dmesg, and when I run lircd -n -H livedrive_midi -d /dev/snd/midiC0D1 - it starts ok and does not show any error.
| Quote: | | As i take it, livedrive's LED blinks when you push a button on your remote, right ? |
Yes, the led blinks as usual, and cat /dev/snd/midiC0D1 gives output when I'm pressing buttons on remote, so I think it's problem with lirc itself.
| Quote: | | Did you try revdep-rebuild ? |
Yes, I've tried it, tried emerge -uD --newuse world, re-emerge lirc, and nothing helps :/ |

I tend to think that the problem is in lircd.conf or it's not loaded correctly.
Filename is /etc/lirc/lircd.conf, not lirc.conf, by the way  I did not pay attention on that in my previous post. |

Yes, it's lircd.conf
But :
1) It was working earlier, and I didn't changed anything in lircd.conf
2) it's official lircd.conf, so it should work |

Same problem here, irrecord see all buttons as 0x00000000
With lircd stopped cat /dev/snd/midiC0D1 shows keycodes but with lircd started it doesn't show anything and the same is for irw.
Have you found any solution?

Yes - I've installed Ubuntu 10.10, and it was working. But after update to 11.04 it stopped working  |

Solution, that worked for ubuntu :

Here are the steps that you need to do to get it working.
It seems like the lirc livedrive_midi code has some problems with the gcc 4.5.2 compiler that ships with ubuntu 11.04.
I installed gcc 4.4.5 (sudo apt-get install gcc-4.4)
Next change to some directory where you can build the new package.
Next get the source: sudo apt-get source lirc
Change to the lirc directory: cd lirc-0.8.7
Set the CC evironment variable to gcc-4.4
In bash/sh "export CC=gcc-4.4".
In tcsh/csh "setenv CC gcc-4.4".
Try to build the package: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -nc
This will probably fail with dependency problems. The build environment has a lot of dependencies. On my system I had to add the following as well:
sudo apt-get install debhelper libusb-dev libasound2-dev libice-dev libsm-dev libirman-dev libftdi-dev autotools-dev portaudio19-dev devscripts quilt libxt-dev po-debconf
If there are any other dependencies, simply install them the same way as above.
Rerun "dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -nc". If all goes well, you can do "cd .."
There should now be a few new packages in the current directory.
You can install it by doing "sudo dpkg -i lirc_0.8.7-0ubuntu4.1_amd64.deb". It should not be necessary to install the other packages.
My /etc/lirc/ hardware.conf looks like this:
| Code: |
# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
#
#Chosen Remote Control
REMOTE="Creative LiveDrive midi"
REMOTE_MODULES=""
REMOTE_DRIVER="livedrive_midi"
REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/snd/midiC0D1"
REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="creative/lircd.conf.livedrive"
REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""
#Chosen IR Transmitter
TRANSMITTER="None"
TRANSMITTER_MODULES=""
TRANSMITTER_DRIVER=""
TRANSMITTER_DEVICE=""
TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_CONF=""
TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_ARGS=""
#Enable lircd
START_LIRCD="true"
#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file
#START_LIRCMD="false"
#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES="true"
# Default configuration files for your hardware if any
LIRCMD_CONF=""
#Forcing noninteractive reconfiguration
#If lirc is to be reconfigured by an external application
#that doesn't have a debconf frontend available, the noninteractive
#frontend can be invoked and set to parse REMOTE and TRANSMITTER
#It will then populate all other variables without any user input
#If you would like to configure lirc via standard methods, be sure
#to leave this set to "false"
FORCE_NONINTERACTIVE_RECONFIGURATION="false"
START_LIRCMD=""
REMOTE_SOCKET=""
TRANSMITTER_SOCKET=""
|
Hope this works for you as well. |

Building lirc with gcc-4.4.5 selected worked for me.
I updated my bugreport: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=358699
Steps to solve this problem:
emerge --oneshot "=sys-devel/gcc-4.4.5"
gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.4.5
source /etc/profile
emerge --oneshot app-misc/lirc
gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.5.2
source /etc/profile
