Good afternoon, as I find it sometimes unpractical having to fetch a tablet or a smartphone, launch an app etc. only to mute music playing on my PCP, I bought a cheap 2,4GHz remote said to work with "linux" (https://www.amazon.de/GeneralKeys-Funk-Air-Maus-Fernbedienung-Windows-Android/dp/B00H4XSPC6/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3TVDIAOCYO59D). I plugged the small USB receiver into my Raspi running PCP 3.20 and jivelite, equipped with the orgininal Raspberry Touchscreen - and after rebooting the remote worked perfectly, controlling not only volume, mute and title skipping, but also backward/forward in the jivelite screens etc.
When trying the same with my other (headless) Raspberry, also running PCP 3.20, the remote won't work. I tried installing jivelite because I thought that the remote drivers might come with jivelite, but no success. Hence my question to those who know the guts of PCP: Is it possible that the remote drivers are only installed / activated if there is a (touch)screen connected to the Raspi? The only other difference between the two systems is that the headless one has a pHAT DAC, while the touchscreen one has a cheap USB soundcard. Thanks in advance for helping Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ streampunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66210 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107352 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
