[mythtv-users] Mythtv on Xbox

[Paul Volkaerts]

Mine works.  Here is what I get from some potentially useful commands ...

xbox:~# ls -la /dev/lir*
srw-rw-r--  1 root lirc 0 Oct 31 20:08 /dev/lircd
prw-rw-r--  1 root lirc 0 Oct 31 20:08 /dev/lircm

/dev/lirc:
total 0
drw-rw-r--  1 root lirc     0 Oct 31 20:08 .
drwxr-xr-x  1 root root     0 Jan  1  1970 ..
crw-rw----  1 root root 61, 0 Oct 31 20:08 0

xbox:~# mode2
This program is only intended for receivers supporting the pulse/space
layer.
Note that this is no error, but this program simply makes no sense for your
receiver.

xbox:~#
xbox:~# lsmod | grep lirc
lirc_xir                1224   1
lirc_dev                8160   1  [lirc_xir]
xir                     3192   0  [lirc_xir]
