no logitech remote after upgrade - kugman - 2016-11-29 hi, my kodi is running on a Intel nuc for years. this morning i started a upgrade from ubuntu 14 LTS to current Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS There were no errors or issues during update process and after a reboot kodi came up again like I am used to it. but my harmony remote does not have control anymore. No matter what key i am pressing, no reaction in kodi. please can anybody help me? thanks, Markus RE: no logitech remote after upgrade - black_eagle - 2016-11-29 Need more info. Stuff like is your receiver being detected ? Are you using LIRC ? FWIW my receiver is a usb jobbie Code: lsusb So Bus 008, device 003 is the receiver. Then Code: dmesg | grep eHome That shows it being detected by the kernel and the driver it is using (mceusb) and where the input is being directed to (rc1). Could also be related to a missing kernel module or module conflict but start with the basics and see if the receiver is showing up. RE: no logitech remote after upgrade - wellspokenman - 2016-12-03 disclaimer: I'm no linux expert, just trying to help. I just upgraded from 14 to 16 and also lost my remote. This wiki helped me a lot. Quick test is to type irw to see if the IR receiver is getting sensible input - the commands should look like the entries you see in Lircmap.xml (ie KEY_LEFT). If you get good info there, go to your kodi log file with debug turned on, and see if anything appears on button push. If it does fix using keymaps. If not try 'dpkg-reconfigure lirc' to select your receiver and remote again. This page on MCE remotes was also helpful, process should be similar for your remote. What worked for me was not running kodi in standalone mode, but I still don't really understand why that fixed it. If you're accessing a htpc via ssh use 'export DISPLAY=:0' then when you type kodi it'll pop up on the TV. Much faster way to test. |
