I think I must have something wrong somewhere else.. USBHID is built into my kernel, so not as a module, cat of /proc/usb/devices as suggested shows my device, but doing the rmmod/modprobe combo doesn't seem to alter anything :(
I wonder if its been claimed by USBHID as you suggest, although lsinput doesn’t show the device... I've been stuck on this one for a while now, I've tried checking against Tino's kernel .config but can't see any apparent differences in the inputs section Hmmm Martin -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jan Bernhardt Sent: 21 October 2006 11:30 To: mactel-linux-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Mactel-linux-users] appleir module and Mac Mini Martin J.

I suspect that the usbhid driver claimed your IR controller. To check that, execute cat /proc/bus/usb/devices and look for the section containing a line like 'S: Product=IR Receiver'. Check the next line starting with 'I:' for the driver keyword. I expect it to say 'Driver: usbhid'. If so, become root and do the following (in one statement to make sure your usb keyboard gets reconnected again if you have one): # rmmod appleir ; rmmod usbhid ; modprobe appleir ; modprobe usbhid Then check the dmesg output for the appleir driver log messages. It should now contain a line similar to input: Apple Mac mini infrared remote control driver as /class /input/input2 Hope this helps, - Jan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
