It looks like I was not supposed to be using atiusb as
my lirc driver. xboxusb seems to be loading better,
see dmesg output snippet below:
lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at
major 61

lirc_xbox[3]: Xbox IR on usb1:3
I have a /etc/lircd.conf which appears to be set up
for xbox:
#
# this config file was automatically generated
# using WinLIRC 0.6.4 (LIRC 0.6.1pre3) on Tue May 06
20:57:47 2003
#

# model: Xbox remote
# supported devices: Xbox
#
begin remote
name xbox
...
end remote
Where is the lircrc file supposed to go?
~/lircrc
~/.lircrc
~/.mythtv/lircrc
~/.mythtv/.lircrc
None of those locations seemed to make any difference,
no response from the xBox DVD remote.
I tried running mode2, since irw never seemded to do
anything except say "connect: Connection refused" and
it complained "mode2: error opening /dev/lirc" and
indeed it doesn't exist:
mythtv at xbox ~ $ ls -la /dev/lir*
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Nov 1 00:02 /dev/lircd
Do I need to create a lirc device manually?
Please let me know any ideas,
Thanks,
Ben
