Hey everyone. I've run into another problem that I've never had
before. Again, I followed and re-checked the procedure outlined in
Jarod's guide, and while it's worked before, it refuses to work now :(
I've installed the lirc-kmdl package for my kernel as well as the lirc
package. Everything looks good. The chipset is detected when I check
dmesg and the lircd service starts up fine without complaining. I
checked /var/log/messages and everything looked good in there as well.
However, I fired up irw and nothing happened. I did copy lircd-g.conf
to /etc/lircd.conf, and I even created my user's .lircrc file. However,
the remote doesn't do anything. irxevent + mythfrontend doesn't do
anything either. I fired up my old installation where I knew things
were working to check and see if it would work now. I thought maybe the
batteries in the remote had gone bad or something. But no such luck :(
It worked fine on my old installation, which leaves me wondering what
exactly I did wrong. As far as I can tell, I did everything exactly the
same. Anyone know what I should check next? Anyone else having
similiar problems? Thanks in advance.
James
