I had very similar issues but my problem was /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/ was not proper for my remote. I was using an Antec Veris case that depends on the imon driver.
With lirc configured to use the devinput I could get some buttons but not all of them via 'irw'. My solution was to take the older /usr/share/lirc/remotes/imon/lircd.conf.imon-pad and merge in into the new /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_pad to have all of the codes I use to have prior to a 12.04 dist upgrade. Once this was done and I rebooted I could get all my keys. (more notes on my fix here: http://torawk.blogspot.ca/2012/08/devinput-antec-veris-imon-remote- used.html ) I came across this bug while trying to fix it and it sounds like similar symptoms -- so perhaps this is an alternative fix? and easier to do than recompiling. I've attached my new /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_pad is case it helps. -Brian ** Attachment added: "imon_pad" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/1029604/+attachment/3255008/+files/imon_pad -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1029604 Title: mce remote doesn't work due to out of date lircd.conf.devinput To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/1029604/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
