Public bug reported: Binary package hint: lirc
lirc not working correctl y on 2.6.38 kernel. I reverted back to lirc not working correctly on 2.6.35 kernel and it starts working. I understand that mceusb is now part of kernel driver. So I have accordingly changed hardware.conf. I dont see anything on irw or ir- keytable -t when i press my remote(s). Tried multiple remotes to see the input. I can confirm that there is /dev/lirc0. When I do cat /dev/lirc0 and press remote I see garbage spew on the screen.
