Just went through this myself.  Personally, I don't like the symlink idea.
I ended up modifying  /etc/init.d/lircd and changed the daemon lircd 
command in the start section.
This forces the lircd daemon to use /dev/lirc0.
Looks like this:
<..snip..>
start(){
if [ -f /etc/lircd.conf ]; then
echo -n $"Starting infrared remote control daemon: "
daemon lircd -d /dev/lirc0
RETVAL=$?
echo
fi
 <..snip..>

This is really wierd because everything worked fine until I rebooted after 
I installed it.

ahh, but alas that does not solve my problem. :-/

my devices are all there and the remote doesn't even work in raw, so
the configs won't help

This solved it:

ln -s /dev/lirc0 /dev/lirc

and the two files /etc/lircd.conf and ~/.mythtv/lircrc in this post:

Trying irrecord (as root) gives me:


irrecord: could not get file information for /dev/lirc
irrecord: default_init(): No such file or directory
irrecord: could not init hardware (lircd running ? --> close it, check 
permissions)


# ls -l /dev/lir*

I'm ran into the same error. I had to do the irrecord. But untill I did a apt-get update/upgrade last night, the irrecord would crash with a gap error. After the apt-get upgrade and reboot the irrecord worked.

I've tried every conf file I could find.

Unless I'm mistaken, the irrecord program should have results even if
I have a conf file that is no good, right? If irrecord doesn't show
anything and strace doesn't even give me anything when the buttons are
pressed, it's not the configuration of the remote that is the problem,
it's the configuration of the IR receiver in the hauppauge card.

Search in the archive since there has been many people posting their
lirc.conf file for your remote, I have the same one and I got the file
from the list.
Get it and save it in the right place, and restart the lircd daemon.
Try the irw again, and you should have something.

Re: [mythtv-users] Hauppage remote pvr350

2004-12-17 Thread Nick Rosier
use irrecord to create your own lircd.conf file. just follow the instruction.
if you want to make sure the remote is working fine, strace the lircd
process and see if "stuff" happens when you press a button.

[mythtv-users] Hauppage remote pvr350

2004-12-17 Thread sigurdne
I'm having trouble with getting the (silver on top/ black bottom) remote to 
work.

I have tried the instructions from
http://mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=19428
and
http://www.byopvr.com/Sections+index-req-viewarticle-artid-13-page-1.html

irw starts - but nothing happens when pressing buttons.

>From cat /var/log/messages I can read:

Dec 17 17:11:36 localhost kernel: lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x18 (Hauppauge IR)
Dec 17 17:11:37 localhost kernel: ivtv: i2c attach [client=Hauppauge IR,ok]
Dec 17 17:11:37 localhost kernel: lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:sample_rate: 
10
Dec 17 17:11:37 localhost mythbackend: mythbackend startup succeeded


Any clues?
