[mythtv-users] ATI Wonder Remote

[Folashade Adeyosoye]

I am still having the same problem with my ATI wonder Remote. Here is my
setup

* FC4    2.6.13-1.1532_FC4smp
* lircd-0.7.2
* Mythtv 0.18

I have installed and configured to the best of my knowledge. I know the
remote work and receive signals because I was able to test using I believe
irrecord/irxevent.

My modprobe.conf has 
# Remote
alias char-major-61 lirc_atiusb
alias lirc_dev lirc_atiusb


My .lircrc is in my mythtv home directory
And lircrc in my .mythtv directory


In my /etc/rc.d/rc.local
   echo "Starting lircd"
   /usr/local/sbin/lircd


In short things seems to be where they are suppose to be, but when the
system starts up I get error in the /var/log/message


Nov 13 02:45:25 naijatv lircd-0.7.2[2846]: lircd(any) ready
Nov 13 02:45:25 naijatv lircd-0.7.2[2846]: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
Nov 13 02:45:25 naijatv lircd-0.7.2[2846]: could not get file information
for /dev/lirc
Nov 13 02:45:25 naijatv lircd-0.7.2[2846]: default_init(): No such file or
directory
Nov 13 02:45:25 naijatv lircd-0.7.2[2846]: caught signal



Here is a listing of my dev dir:


[root at naijatv dev]# ls -l li*
crw-rw----  1 root root 61, 0 Nov 13 02:44 lirc0
srw-rw-rw-  1 root root     0 Nov 13 02:45 lircd
prw-r--r--  1 root root     0 Nov 13 02:45 lircm


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The last answer is correct IF you're using LIRC with your ATI remote and 
not the IMO much easier to use kernel driver which allows your remote to 
act as a KB and mouse.  The problem he's referring to comes in kernels > 
2.6.12 when using the default ATI driver.  I've looked high and low and 
can't find any way to configure the repeat time when loading the 
module.  If somoene knows this please let me know
