hello, [i follow both, the user and the devel list for ivtv, and i'm posting this question on the devel list as the user list has low to no traffic]
i watch tv with a pvr-350 on an amd athlon64 with a matrox g400. the system runs debian/unstable with a selfcompiled kernel 2.6.12.2, ivtv 0.3.6z and mythtv 0.18.1. watching tv works perfectly now, but at setting up the remote, i ran into some troubles. the wiki article at http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=Remotes mentiones that recent 2.6 kernels contain a module called ir-kbd-i2c, and that the lirc modules are depreciated. i couldn't find the ir-kbd-i2c module, so i built the lirc modules, and successfully loaded them (lirc-dev and lirc-i2c). maybe the wiki article could be extended to explain how to do it with lirc as well, or some information regarding ir-kbd-i2c should be added. for some reason, 'modprobe lirc-i2c' loads the bttv driver as well. i could remove it from my kernel, but i wonder whether this would break even more or rather fix my problem... output of 'modprobe lirc-i2c' is: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 48139, rev = K257, serial# = 7672850 tveeprom: tuner = Philips FM1216 ME MK3 (idx = 57, type = 38) tveeprom: tuner fmt = PAL(B/G) PAL(I) SECAM(L/L) PAL(D/K) (eeprom = 0x74, v4l2 = 0x00400e17) tveeprom: audio_processor = CS5331 (type = 9) ivtv: i2c attach [client=tveeprom[50],ok] bttv: driver version 0.9.15 loaded bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x18 (Hauppauge IR) ivtv: i2c attach [client=Hauppauge IR,ok] lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:sample_rate: 10 afterwards i start lircd in the non-daemon mode: 'lircd -n -d /dev/lirc0' and after that i start irw to test the functionality of my remote. unfortunately neither irw nor lircd give any output when pressing on my remote. the receiver/aerial is directly in front of the remote, so it must receive the signals by the remote. do you have any suggestions? bye jonas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the 'Do More With Dual!' webinar happening July 14 at 8am PDT/11am EDT.
