<br></div>The system is definitely recognizing keystrokes as verified by dmesg when I start the ir-kbd-i2c module in debug mode. I have verified that the keymap I am loading is fine and running ir-keytable -r shows keystrokes. I just no output when I run irw. I have stopped and restarted lirc plenty of of times, I have tried different lirc.conf files from the lirc-remotes package. I am just stumped here.<br>
<br>As an aside, some of the keys appear to be recognized as keyboard keystrokes if I use different keymaps than the custom one I have created (I can verify this by opening a text editor and inputting text with the remote). I would be fine just getting rid of lirc and using my harmony remote and receiver as a keyboard, but unsure how to do that.<br>
