Hi all, I've been happily using Myth (SVN checkouts every month or so) for about 4 months. My setup at the moment is as follows:
Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T PCI (two of them) AMD x86_64 system Fedora Core 4 - all up to date MythTV SVN revision 8053 As a relative newbie to Linux I think I've been getting on quite well, but the one thing that is completely defeating me is connecting the Hauppauge remote control to Myth. From the outset there are five keys on the remote that translated to events on the system. I have always been able to use the four arrow keys and the OK button. However, none of the other buttons produce any effect on the system except when I do a 'cat /dev/input/event0'. Then I get something resembling line noise whenever I press a key on the remote. I've downloaded and compiled lirc version 0.7.3pre1. I configured it to use the appropriate driver for the Hauppauge TV card (i2C required) and turned on debugging. On 'make install' it created the appropriate device node in /dev : srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Dec 4 17:50 /dev/lircd I used a lirc.conf file with appropriate contents for the Nova-T card (second half of this file from the lirc.org website: <http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge.irman>) Then I start lircd in a terminal 'lircd -n -D2' lircd 0.7.3pre1: started server socket lircd 0.7.3pre1: parsing remote lircd 0.7.3pre1: creating first remote lircd 0.7.3pre1: parsing (null) remote lircd 0.7.3pre1: begin codes lircd 0.7.3pre1: end codes lircd 0.7.3pre1: end remote lircd 0.7.3pre1: config file read lircd 0.7.3pre1: lircd(H=) ready <slight pause> lircd 0.7.3pre1: registering local client lircd 0.7.3pre1: accepted new client on H= lircd 0.7.3pre1: Segmentation fault Just after the slight pause, I get IrKick flash up on my KDE desktop telling me that the "infrared system has severed its connection". Has anyone had this happen to them? Have you managed to solve the problem and get your Hauppauge remote fully working? If not, does anyone have any ideas on what I can do next to get the remote up and running?
