Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: lirc
Not entirely sure if this issue is related to lirc or LCDproc, I have
both installed on Lucid using a Zalman HD-135 case with the MPlay Blast
VFD combined remote/LCD display unit.
Both remote and display work when lirc and LCDproc are configured
correctly (see files attached) The machine will boot with the red IR led
on the display lit and when Ubuntu loads the unit is initialised and the
light goes out (lighting briefly with each key press)
On occasion the machine will boot and the unit does not get initalised,
the light will stay lit and the remote will not function (the LCD
display still will) Subsequent power downs will not fix the issue, nor
does reinstalling lirc/LCDproc.
The ONLY way I can get the remote functioning again is to boot into my
XP virtual machine in VirtualBox, enable the usb device and install the
windows driver/software. This detects the device and the IR light on the
front of the display goes out and the remote starts functioning as
usual.
