<html>Hi again,<br /><br /> Next problem is my Soundgraph imon LCD screen and IR receiver.<br /><br /> I really wanted to avoid lirc altogether this time as the scancodes now work perfectly through the event interface (before I even installed lirc. Surprisingly, the problem is with the LCD screen, which is refusing to work.<br /><br />I ended up installing lirc just to get LCDd and lcdproc, then used the cme editor to write the following file:<br /><br /> ## This file was written by cme command.<br />## You can run 'cme edit lcdproc' to modify this file.<br />## You may also modify the content of this file with your favorite editor.<br /><br /><br />[server]<br />Driver=imonlcd<br />DriverPath=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lcdproc/<br />GoodBye="Goodbye!"<br />Hello="Welcome to"<br />Hello="mythbox!"<br />NextScreenKey=Right<br />PrevScreenKey=Left<br />ReportToSyslog=yes<br />ToggleRotateKey=Enter<br />User=nobody<br /><br />[imonlcd]<br />Backlight=on<br />Device=/dev/lcd0<br />DiscMode=0<br />OnExit=1<br />Protocol=1<br />Size=16x2<br /><br />[menu]<br />DownKey=Down<br />EnterKey=Enter<br />MenuKey=Escape<br />UpKey=Up<br /><br />The usb device exists:<br /> lsusb | grep -i soundgraph<br />Bus 004 Device 003: ID 15c2:0038 SoundGraph Inc.
