I am having a similar problem. One thing you can try is to run mode2
which will give you the raw output from the IR receiver. I believe
it gets it before the lirc daemon gets a chance to look at it. This
also gives me no output. Haupenauge is actually pretty good with
replacement parts. I just sent an email to their tech support and
they sent me a new IR receiver/cable free of charge. Though in the
end this has not fixed anything.
So check out mode2 but if you really think it's hardware Haupenauge
was good to me about that at least which was a nice surprise. If you
find any solution post it up here because I would love to be able to
get it working again. Wireless keyboard to run myth is just not the
same.

Hi,
After moving recently, I've just rebuilt my Mythbox using Fedora FC
4. I cannot seem to get LIRC working. I think it's the IR
transceiver itself not the set up; but before I try tracking down a
replacement, I was hoping someone here might be able to sanity
check my setup and debugging thus far..
Downloaded /etc/lircd.conf from Jarod's site for my setup
/dev looks ok:
# ls -al /dev/li*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Sep 25 18:52 /dev/lirc -> lirc0
crw-rw---- 1 root root 61, 0 Sep 25 18:52 /dev/lirc0
crw-rw---- 1 root root 61, 1 Sep 25 18:52 /dev/lirc1
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Sep 26 01:53 /dev/lircd
Everything seems to connect fine:
# dmesg | grep lirc
lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61
lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x18 (Hauppauge IR)
lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 10
lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x18 (Hauppauge IR)
lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 10
irw does nothing & irrecord returns with:
irrecord: gap not found, can't continue
irrecord leaves this in the log:
Sep 26 22:30:42 localhost lircd-0.7.2[2704]: accepted new client
on /dev/lircd
Sep 26 22:30:48 localhost lircd-0.7.2[2704]: removed client
...and the kicker:
cat /dev/lirc
shows nothing when I hit a remote button. This leads me to the
conclusion that the IR transceiver has given up the ghost.
Anything I've forgotten or could try? Does Haupppauge sell
replacements?. Any other places I might be able to find a replacement?
Thanks!
