Hello,
I'm using a Hauppauge WinTV HVR 1900 (usb), with a self-compiled kernel
3.2.11. The USB device works very well, but I would like to use LIRC
0.9.0 with my kernel. So I have set the LIRC_DEVICES="hauppauge" within
my make.conf and run emerge.
Emerge fetches this packages:
[ebuild N ] sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.2.11 USE="-build -deblob
-symlink"
[ebuild N ] virtual/linux-sources-0
[ebuild N ] app-misc/lirc-0.9.0
error: 'struct i2c_adapter' has no member named 'id'
I just found this commit in Linus's git repo:
commit c185a9420bd1c645252249018e6887a968d3e1de

i2c: Drop i2c_adapter.id
There is no user left of i2c_adapter.id, so we can get rid of it.
Finally! :)
And this comment from last June:
-What: i2c_adapter.id
-When: June 2011
-Why: This field is deprecated. I2C device drivers shouldn't change their
- behavior based on the underlying I2C adapter.
The lirc code includes several #ifdefs that test for the adapter id, so
the lirc devs *are* changing their driver behavior based on it, obviously.
Looks to me like lirc will need to be modified upstream for recent kernel
code.
I think so, but I have posted the error message on the lirc mailinglist
with actually no answer
Phil
