Hi there,

Almost MythTV related :-)
I am currently running Debian testing, with MythTV 0.18. Everything works except for lirc.

I have a PVR250 with remote .. I followed the instructions for building lirc, and it builds and installs fine.
However, when running I get several errors:

Upon booting (I have lircd set to auto-start), the following is entered into messages:

lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61
lirc_i2c: no version for "lirc_unregister_plugin" found: kernel tainted.

I don't believe this is an error as such, but may be useful info...or not, I dunno...

lircd is running as a process...but when attempting to run irrecord I get the following:

pvr-1:/home/pclarke# irrecord /tmp/1.conf

irrecord -  application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc

irrecord: could not open /dev/lirc
irrecord: default_init(): No such device
irrecord: could not init hardware (lircd running ? --> close it, check permissions)

The devices look like:

pvr-1:/home/pclarke# ll /dev/lirc*
crw-r--r--  1 root root 61, 0 2005-07-15 13:28 /dev/lirc
srw-r--r--  1 root root     0 2005-07-15 13:51 /dev/lircd
prw-r--r--  1 root root     0 2005-07-15 13:28 /dev/lircm

Chaning the permissions to 666 doesn't appear to help .... any idea what the problem is??

Cheers,


Pete.

If you don't have ivtv loaded, it's probably not going to work. Check that first.
