Yes, ir-keytable --read or ir-keytable -r should give you the correct
scancodes for your device. But before that, you may need to specify
the protocol. Try this:
cat /sys/proc/rc/rc0/protocols
This is what I get:
root at mypvr:/etc/rc_keymaps# cat /sys/class/rc/rc0/protocols
rc-5 nec [rc-6] jvc sony mce_kbd lirc
which shows that rc-6 protocol is selected. I suspect that you will
get something like this:
rc-5 nec rc-6 jvc sony mce_kbd lirc
with no protocol having been automatically selected.
To select a protocol, do this:
echo "rc-6" >/sys/proc/rc/rc0/protocols
and see if that helps.
