You probably are running up against the change of the IR drivers<br>
into kernel drivers instead of user mode drivers inside lirc. In<br>
which case, the best option is to use the kernel drivers (devinput),<br>
but that means a significant reconfiguration of your IR setup. So<br>
what remote are you using? Do all the keys work at startup, or only<br>
the arrow keys?<br></blockquote><div><br></div></span><span class=""><div>Only the arrow keys work.</div><div> </div></span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex">

I just had a look at your README and this looks like it's a gargantuan task and not something for the faint-hearted. Lirc was always the most difficult and annoying thing to get working as part of a MythTV setup. I can't believe it's been made even more complicated!</div><div><br></div><div>My remote is a Harmony 600. Is there, by any chance, a shortcut to doing this by copying someone else's config for a Harmony 600? if not, I'll start working my way through your guide. One of the 1st things I noticed was that I don't have /etc/rc_keymaps/ files. I also don't have ir-keytable installed. Should I just install ir-keytable or does this indicate a more fundamental problem that I need to deal with first?</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I've been having a look at this and have to admit I'm totally confused.
