Hi,
I have an Avermedia M115 mini-pci-e TV card on an Acer Aspire 5652. The
card has an infrared device which is exactly working as described in the
original bug report. I can get some of the keys like 1-2-3-OK etc. on
the login screen, terminal window etc.
System is a Mythbuntu 8.10 beta 1 updated to latest packages as of Oct
24, 2008.
Nevertheless, most of the keys on the IR remote don't work, I receive such
messages in dmesg:
[100603.834359] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x9e on
isa0060/serio0).
[100603.834375] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e01e <keycode>' to make it known.
I also see that my lshal reports something else, so the HAL solution
here does not work. Here's the interesting part below, also stange that
I have not one but two devices, event7 and event8 on the video bus:
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_logicaldev_input_1'

info.category = 'input' (string)
info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer' (string)

(string)
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_logicaldev_input_0'
info.addons.singleton = {'hald-addon-input'} (string list)
info.callouts.add = {'debian-setup-keyboard'} (string list)
info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.keys', 'button'} (string list)
info.category = 'input' (string)
info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer' (string)
info.product = 'Video Bus' (string)
info.subsystem = 'input' (string)
info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_logicaldev_input_0'
(string)
input.device = '/dev/input/event7' (string)
input.product = 'Video Bus' (string)
input.x11_driver = 'evdev' (string)
input.xkb.layout = 'us' (string)
input.xkb.model = 'pc105' (string)
input.xkb.rules = 'evdev' (string)
linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event7' (string)
linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int)
linux.subsystem = 'input' (string)
linux.sysfs_path =
'/sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:01/device:02/input/input7/event7'
(string)
Changing the /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi file
contents to match the upper mentioned device silences the compaints of
lircd and inputlircd about the exclusive access, but does not make the
remote work.
cat /dev/input/event7 and cat /dev/input/event8 and irw are always
silent, even for the already recognized keys..,
I guess the first step is to get the kernel recognize those keys. But if
it's going to be manual, that would be a hard work due to a total of 48
keys on the remote (some working).
Note: no input devices are configured in xorg.conf, nvidia driver is
loaded to do it automatically. Xorg.0.log shows nothing about the remote
getting configured.
Any clues?
