I have been struggling with this for four hours now and cannot get my head wrapped around how lirc and devinput coexist now. I have previously set up a frontend with an mceusb remote (a bit of a struggle, but I did have success) on 12.04. This is my backend/frontend combination. I use a Harmony H659 remote emulating the Hauppauge grey remote. I use the IR receiver on a PVR250 (with digital TV, that's its only purpose now). Is there a way to get the signals to pass from devinput driver to lirc?<div>
<br></div><div>I can see the keypresses with ir-keytable and I can map the keys with an rc-keymap file, but I cannot seem to find the right configuration for lirc's hardware.conf file. If I set the REMOTE_DEVICE=/dev/input/event11, the keypresses seem to get swallowed (i.e. the arrow keys no longer work in the frontend), but I never get anything out of irw. This is what I currently have for hardware.conf:</div>
<div><div><br></div><div>REMOTE="Hauppauge TV card"</div><div>REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev"</div><div>REMOTE_DRIVER="devinput"</div><div>REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/input/event11"</div><div>REMOTE_SOCKET=""</div>
<div>REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF=""</div><div>REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""</div></div><div><br></div><div>It seems that everything that I find with Google deals with USB IR receivers.</div><div><br></div><div>-- Ken E.</div>
