Well at least we know why it isn't working :-) I have not kept up with the FC* systems, or any RPMs associated with it, but a couple of questions? Are you running uDev? Is lirc support in your kernel as modules or compiled in? Is auto-loading of modules enabled in your kernel? If lirc is modular, have you installed the proper kernel modules? (On my system the lirc-i2c modules need to be installed and lircd needs to be started before the /dev/lirc* devices will be there)(modprobe lirc-i2c & /etc/init.d/lircd start) If your system is starting lircd *before* the module is loaded this might be your problem. Are you running ls -al /dev/lirc* as root? (if not, the devices may be there but you do not have permission to r/w them) If the devices still do not show with the module loaded and lircd started, look at the udev rules and permissions files and check that things look right there. I would guess that any RPM installation of lirc would need to take care of the udev stuff for the devices but you never know. If the lirc version in the RPM was not compiled with i2c support then the devices would likely not be there. Looks like your problem is specific to FC4 and the RPMs for lirc though. |
