This looks indeed weird. You have a Winbond 8769L and tries to use the
lirc_wpc8769l kernel module, which should present data from your remote
on /dev/lirc0. However, this kernel module has been dropped, it never
made the transition process when the kernel modules was moved from lirc
to the kernel prior to 0.9.0.
Still, the kernel gives you some sort of input. The question then
becomes what module it uses for your device, and if it's supposed to
support that device. So, what is the dmesg output when you plugin in
the usb receiver?
This is an old bug. We need this input to advance it. Otherwise, it
will eventually be closed.
** Changed in: lirc (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
