I have a Dell Latitude (CPXJ, I think) with an onboard IR emitter. I cannot figure out how to get it to blast IR codes to my Dish 301 (JVC) settop box. I'm not worried about receiving IR, just sending IR now. I used the trick of viewing the IR with a digital camera - I can see handheld remotes sending IR, but I cannot see the onboard IR sending anything (forget for a moment whether I'm sending proper codes for my 301 or not).
I have the IR enabled in the BIOS and the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dmesg | grep lirc lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 lirc_serial: port 03f8 already in use lirc_serial: use 'setserial /dev/ttySX uart none' lirc_serial: or compile the serial port driver as module and lirc_serial: make sure this module is loaded first lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 0 lirc_sir: I/O port 0x03e8, IRQ 4. lirc_sir: Installed. lirc_sir: Uninstalled. caller is init_port+0xb1/0x290 [lirc_serial] <<<<<<<<< I insmod'ed lirc_serial here to see [<e0eb4a01>] init_port+0xb1/0x290 [lirc_serial]<<<<<<<<< if it would change anything...
