I have the Hauppauge HVR-1600 (1199) card with the grey remote (A415-HPG-A), and I have spent the last few days trying everything to make my remote work, but so far no results. I do not have any problems using the card to watch TV using the cx18 driver that comes with Mythbuntu 9.10 or any new cx18 drivers that I compile. The only problem that I have is loading the new ir-kbd-i2c module and getting the remote to work (it always gets "killed").
I'm running a fresh install of Mythbuntu 9.10, with all of the available updates (including kernel 2.6.31-17-generic). I have tried using these methods with the 2.6.31-14 packages, and they did not work. I have also tried using these methods with the updated 2.6.31-17 packages, and they also did not work. I tried the following solutions for making the remote work, but they also did not work: - http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8257616&postcount=27 (ir-kbd-i2c is "killed") - http://rtr.ca/hvr1600/ (compilation errors) I've followed the instructions from posts #12, #14 and #16 above, and I'm able to compile and install the LIRC 0.8.6 and V4L-DVB packages, but I cannot load the ir-kbd-i2c modules into memory after I reboot. I always get a "killed" message after the modprobe, and related messages printed to the kernel buffer (dmesg). For example: fr...@desktop:~$ sudo modprobe ir-kbd-i2c Killed fr...@desktop:~$ fr...@desktop:~$ dmesg ...

Indi.N also describes this in: http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8257616#post8257616) Getting the remote to work with this card has been more aggravating than I imagined. I'm almost tempted to build my own LIRC-compatible IR receiver and forget about using the IR receiver that came with the HVR-1600 card. Can someone please point me in the right direction? What am I missing? Why is the ir-kbd-i2c being killed? What should I be looking at?
