 but it didn't work. after restarting udev, there was no device

Hello, my rule is as simple as:

- /etc/udev/rules.d/10-lirc.rules
KERNEL==event*, ATTRS{name}==Mantis VP-1041 IR Receiver, 
SYMLINK=input/irremote


If you like me have a single device maybe give it another try, ignoring 
most of that wiki? It's an easy and reliable method.

i created a workaround with the following S19... startup script:


#!/bin/sh
cat /tmp/RecreateLircConfig.java DELIM
import java.nio.file.*;
public class RecreateLircConfig {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Path path1 = Paths.get(/dev/input/by-id/usb-05a4_9881-event-kbd);
Path path2 =
Paths.get(/dev/input/by-id/usb-05a4_9881-if01-event-mouse);
System.out.println(# Options to be passed to inputlirc.);
System.out.printf(EVENTS=\%s %s\%n, path1.toRealPath(),
path2.toRealPath());
System.out.println(OPTIONS=\-g -m 0 -c\);
  }
}
DELIM
javac -d /tmp /tmp/RecreateLircConfig.java
#java -cp /tmp RecreateLircConfig
java -cp /tmp RecreateLircConfig /etc/default/inputlirc


to execute the script, the deb openjdk-7-jdk is needed

 Hi,

 There is this function in my run-vdr script, perhaps it can help:

 --8---cut here---start-8---
 reload-dvb()
 {
 killall irxevent lircd
 sleep 1
 killall -9 irxevent lircd
 modprobe -r $DVB_DRIVERS
 sleep 1
 for i in $DVB_DRIVERS; do modprobe $i; done
 sleep 3
 EV=`ir-keytable 21 | grep -B1 tevii | \
sed -nr 's,^.*/dev/input/(event.).*$,\1,p'`
 ln -sf $EV $IR
 chmod 644 $IR
 sleep 3
 lircd -Hdevinput -d$IR
 sleep 1
 irxevent -d ~vdr/.lircrc
 }
 --8---cut here---end---8---

[vdr] inputlirc with devices referenced by /dev/input/by-id/...

[Rainer Blickle]

Hi,

i have the following problem:
With Ubuntu 12.04 inputlirc doesn't work anymore when using the symlics
under /dev/input/by-id/...

I have a Hama IR Remote, the symlinks for the remote are:
/dev/input/by-id/usb-05a4_9881-event-kbd - ../event2
/dev/input/by-id/usb-05a4_9881-if01-event-mouse - ../event3

When using this links in /etc/default/inputlirc like the following
##
EVENTS=/dev/input/by-id/usb-05a4_9881*
OPTIONS=-g -m 0 -c
##
then inputlirc doesn't start.

With the following content:
##
EVENTS=/dev/input/event2 /dev/input/event3
OPTIONS=-g -m 0 -c
##
inputlirc starts and works as expected. unfortunately the device (event2/3)
changes from reboot to reboot.

The upper version of the config (with by-id) has been worked under ubuntu
10.10 without any problem.

I have tried to create static device names with the manual under 
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Configure_VRC-1100_remote_for_Ubuntu;,
but it didn't work. after restarting udev, there was no device
/dev/input/irremote0

is it a known bug that lirc doesn't  work with by-id device names ? Have
any other the same problem ?

Regards, Rainer
