Hi all, I'm having a problem with my Kodi system. Unfortunately I don't use the Kodi system very often (the system also runs as a general server on my network so most of my work on it is done through ssh) so I don't know exactly when this happened, but it would have been in the last couple of months.
The problem is that the iMON IR remote stopped working at some point. I have an Antec Fusion Remote Black case that uses an iMON LCD and IR receiver. This was working fine with evdev/X/Kodi but at some point stopped working, and since I haven't used the Kodi interface for a few months I don't know exactly what broke it. It looks like the most interesting information comes from Xorg.0.log: ... [217569.500] (II) config/udev: Adding input device iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc) (/dev/input/event4) [217569.500] (**) iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc): Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [217569.500] (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc)' [217569.500] (**) iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc): always reports core events [217569.500] (**) evdev: iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc): Device: "/dev/input/event4" [217569.500] (--) evdev: iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc): Vendor 0x15c2 Product 0xffdc [217569.500] (WW) evdev: iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc): Don't know how to use device [217569.600] (EE) PreInit returned 8 for "iMON Remote (15c2:ffdc)" [217569.600] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" ... I've tried googling "evdev Don't know how to use device" but haven't found anything relevant. Does anyone have any clues about what I could be missing? It looks like xf86-input-evdev 2.10.5 went stable back in March 2017, and I'm pretty sure that the remote was working after that. -- Manuel A.
