Bug description:
Binary package hint: lirc
Hi, I have IgorPlug-USB(AVR) receiver, it works on Windows fine with 4-5
transmitters I have tested.
I have installed generic Jaunty (Intrepid, some other custom kernels.. with no
luck too).
I have Installed lirc package and chose from the list Igor Cesko USB receiver.
On boot I see that appropriate kernel module loaded without errors:
$ dmesg | grep lirc
[ 21.824130] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61
[ 21.868206] lirc_igorplugusb: USB remote driver for LIRC v0.1
[ 21.868218] lirc_igorplugusb: Jan M. Hochstein
<[email protected]>
[ 21.944392] lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 100
[ 21.993818] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Ing. Igor Cesko, Copyright(c) 2003
IgorPlug-USB (AVR) on usb3:3
[ 21.997883] usbcore: registered new interface driver lirc_igorplugusb
So I run irw utility to test the system and press buttons on transmitter, irw
gives no output instead of received characters.
$ irw
In dmesg output I see buffer overrun error on each keypress:
$ dmesg | grep lirc
[ 21.824130] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61
[ 21.868206] lirc_igorplugusb: USB remote driver for LIRC v0.1

[ 21.993818] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Ing. Igor Cesko, Copyright(c) 2003
IgorPlug-USB (AVR) on usb3:3
[ 21.997883] usbcore: registered new interface driver lirc_igorplugusb
[ 165.356078] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Device buffer overrun.
[ 165.700094] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Device buffer overrun.
The same story with all transmitters I tested. All of them work in Windows. I
think the problem is in lirc_igorplugusb kernel module, almost the same code in
all distributions.
I have now skills in IR technology so.. reported this bug to you. Any help will
be appreciated.
Thanks, Denis
