I just bought one of those packard bell remote cheap off ebay. I'm
having a problem getting it to work. Here is the output if i run
irw:<br>
<br>
root@mythtvbox2:~# lircd --nodaemon<br>
lircd 0.7.2: lircd(serial) ready<br>
lircd 0.7.2: accepted new client on /dev/lircd<br>
lircd 0.7.2: could not get hardware features<br>
lircd 0.7.2: this device driver does not support the new LIRC interface<br>
lircd 0.7.2: major number of /dev/lirc is 4<br>
lircd 0.7.2: LIRC major number is 61<br>
lircd 0.7.2: check if /dev/lirc is a LIRC device<br>
lircd 0.7.2: caught signal<br>
Terminated<br>
<br>
(I have also install lirc with the packard bell option so the second
line has that instead of (serial) but both do the same thing)<br>
I do have ln /dev/ttyS0 /dev/lirc<br>
I also have linked S1 to lirc0 and ran lircd with the device option to lirc0. Can anyone help?<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Sincerely, <br><br>MacNean C. Tyrrell
