Public bug reported: I have the following VFD + IR device... Bus 002 Device 002: ID 15c2:ffdc SoundGraph Inc. iMON PAD Remote Controller
With the following installed versions... kernel: 2.6.38-10-generic lircd: 0.8.7 ...and configured using the devinput driver (config generated via "dpkg-reconfigure lirc") I get this error in syslog and lirc fails to work: kernel: [ 20.254591] imon 2-7:1.0: Looks like you're trying to use an IR protocol this device does not support kernel: [ 20.254597] imon 2-7:1.0: Unsupported IR protocol specified, overriding to iMON IR protocol Running lircd manually works... sudo /usr/sbin/lircd -n --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd --driver=devinput --device=/dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:0b.0-usb-0:7:1.0-event So to get lirc working when launched via the init script I have to comment out the in_kernel_support() function so that it doesn't try setting the incorrect protocol. ** Affects: lirc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: imon ir lirc protocol -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/824369 Title: ubuntu 11.04 - lirc init script sets invalid ir protocol for imon driver (imon Looks like you're trying to use an IR protocol this device does not support) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/824369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
