I can confirm that this is still an issue with the latest release of Mythbuntu/MythTV release.
Please see this bug report-> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/787742 And this bug report (should probably be combined) -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/787735 And this forum thread -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1765194 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to Mythbuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176613 Title: Snapstream Firefly remote not working Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Incomplete Bug description: This remote is listed in the Mythbuntu 7.10 Control Center as Snapstream X10 Remote, but does not work when selected. As a diagnostic step, I ran irw, but there was no response to key presses from the remote. I tried several things In the ubuntu community forum description of the lirc installation procedure, but to no avail. However, I found a thread from someone having a similar problem. Following their advice, I found that the names that refer to this remote in hardware.conf, lircd.conf, and lircrc are inconsistent. The name "Snapstream X10 Remote" is used in hardware.conf. The name Snapstream Firefly is used in lircd.conf, and lircrc just uses Snapstream. I changed all the names to Snapstream to get it to work. I did not attempt to determine whether the earlier changes I made affected operation of the remote or not, but clearly the names in the files should be corrected. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
