Re: [mythtv-users] USB IR Receiver
Well, I've held off on this, but I'll give my $.02 worth I guess. If you have a USB receiver which you really love, then the rest of this post is moot, so please feel free to delete it. For me though, it was very hard getting a USB receiver to work and trying to use Jarod's Guide. *Sidebar to give props where It needs to be given, Jarod's guide probably saved me DAYS (if not weeks) of messing around with other stuff, just to get anything going at all... The guide is a God-send* To the point though, what I would recommend is getting all the way to that point, getting a streamzap remote (thinkgeek.com) and doing the following: First make sure you have the source modules... there's a .src rpm from Axel's site... Install the streamzap remote receiver. Then do this: rpm -e kernel-source (In case you found the complete source somewhere else like I did, and apparently don't need) cd /usr/src ln -s /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build linux-`uname -r` Now you can compile some modules! Follow the guide here: http://www.grangenet.net/~greg/streamzap.html >From the guide I would recommend downloading the tar file and the patch and following the directions from there... I didn't use the CVS. The CVS may have the streamzap remote built in already, making the patch unnecessary, but I know this worked, so I skipped CVS. After you've ran the make install part (The End). add these 2 lines to your /etc/modprobe.conf # lirc_streamzapusb module alias char-major-61 lirc_streamzapusb Now, after I loaded it, it created a /dev/lirc0, but no /dev/lirc, so I did the ln -s /dev/lirc0 /dev/lirc After that, starting up the software from /usr/local/sbin/lircd -n worked like a champ. You can now start up /usr/local/bin/irw, and test the remote that comes with the entire setup. Just start lircd from the S99local script /usr/local/sbin/lircd -n & I'm still working out my lircrc, but it's functional for the most part (If you want a copy, email me off list, I'll send it to you) Oh, and credit for putting me on to this goes to Kevin Kuphal... who is also on this list. Thanks much. This is by far and away the easiest remote and receiver to deal with (for me at least). Of course, there's lots of people around who may disagree I'm sure, but I didn't want to fight it too hard, and this became an easy solution. The Receiver cable is also very long, but the receiver itself is pretty small. If I had one "bad" thing to say about it, it would be that the remote is kinda' light, but for me, it's a non-issue. -Tu --- Jim Oltman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > These are the lines from Jarod's Guide I am using to > grab lirc: > > # apt-get install lirc-kmdl-$KVER > # apt-get install lirc > > So you are saying there is a specific lirc-kmdl... > for USB?

RE: [mythtv-users] USB IR Receiver
You don't need any LIRC modules, lirc_serial is for com port IR devices, you need kernel driver module(forgot its name) for USB UIRT and actual LIRC daemon(lircd) needs to start on startup(need script in /etc/init.d and link to it like from /etc/rc2.d etc.). Actual LIRC must have USB UIRT support, you need to build LIRC from sources, I'm not sure if there are any binaries exists that support USB UIRT. When building from sources, either you need patch or get latest CVS sources. I did not try CVS but I've read somewhere that USB UIRT made to CVS, so it has to be supported.
