hi mff, On the [Tweaks] page we have "User commands" for adding user's commands to the startup process. Theses are run towards the end of do_rebootstuff. This *should* work in your case and have the benefit of being easier to setup and should be saved in you config.cfg. :) regards Greg

Simply adding the Code: sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/pikeyd start command to the "do_rebootstuff.sh" somewhere after the jivelite section did the trick. Now I can use touchscreen and pikeyd simultaneously. But one more thing is left: No presets can

Is it possible to get pikeyd working together with a touchscreen in pcP? My goal is to get a working touchscreen (already running) and some additional hardware buttons for volume and presets. When I try to set Code: /usr/local/etc/init.d/pikeyd start

Got it working, but I would appreciate a hint how to do it right. I copied the content of /etc/udev/rules.d/99-slimmer.rules to a new file 98-lircd.rules and changed from piked to lircd like this: Code: SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{name}=="lircd", NAME="input/%k",

So, next challenge: I can get LIRCd to run with -uinput by the way Ralpy describes. I can also configure my own lircd.conf file so it contains the right keys for slimmer. And I can start slimmer with Code: --input /dev/input/event0 and have

Excuse me if I'm being thick: If I install LIRC via the tweaks page in the pCP web gui, the squeezlite command line is automatically extended by -i and the LIRCd command line does not get the --uinput option. Is there a way I can tamper with these commandlines? Without pCP I don't know how to

I'm still waiting for my IR receiver. In the meantime I finished the buttons/encoder and hooked them up. Made a funny observation: The encoder worked to wrong way: clockwise decreased volume, CCW increased. So I figured I only need to swap the pin numbers in pikeyd.conf. Wrong: swapping the
