I am working on upgrading my ATVs to FC13. They are currently running FC12, but with an older kernel. I have run into problems with the newer kernels and LIRC. With FC13, the kernel is 2.6.33.5-124.fc13.i686. The first hurdle was that it didn't seem that a device file was being created for the IR receiver. At least, /dev/ usb/hiddev0 was missing. The relevant dmesg lines are: usbcore: registered new interface driver hiddev usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid usbhid: USB HID core driver .... input: Apple Infrared Remote Controller as /devices/ pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.0/input/input3 input: Apple Infrared Remote Controller as /devices/ pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.1/input/input4 usbcore: registered new interface driver appleir
Using the wonderfully descriptive device file: /dev/input/by-id/usb- Apple_Computer__Inc._IR_Receiver-event-if01, I now get the following in when ever I press a button on the remote: kernel: appleir: unknown packet (5 bytes) 25 b9 04 ff 00 The message is slightly different depending the button pushed. Any thoughts? Thanks, Ken -- To post to this group, send email to atv-bootloader@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/atv-bootloader?hl=en
