- darkattraction - 2009-08-05 which version of lirc do you use? as I posted before only the last version (lirc-0.8.6pre1.tar.bz2) recognize the irc chip n00b - SmeagolL - 2009-08-05 I wonder if you could write up a step-by-step / tutorial for a noob? I got the same machine running in ubuntu. I would be very thankful! - JS36 - 2009-08-05 sudo apt-get install dialog Download lirc-0.8.6pre1 and move it to /usr/src sudo su tar xvfj lirc-0.8.6pre1 cd lirc-0.8.6pre1 sh setup.sh Driver configuration(1) > IrDa/CIR hardware(6) > ITE IT8712/IT8705/IT8720 CIR port (3) and "save configuration & run configure" in first menu make make install This is my steps i do after remove the older lirc from apt-tree and rm -rf /usr/src/lirc* I don't have dev/lirc0 or any config-files in /etc/lirc and can't run "sudo /etc/init.d/lircd start" couse it doesn't exist. Maybe i should do it again and look for errors when i compile? - JS36 - 2009-08-05 Ok now i have reinstalled ubuntu jaunty again and haven't touched the synaptic lirc. I added this to /etc/modules lirc_dev lirc_it87 This gave me /etc/lirc0 now but still no /dev/lirc or /dev/lircd can i just link them from /usr/local/sbin where i found them? dmesg |grep lirc Code: [ 175.590388] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 Can this be an issue ? In bios my CIR have IRQ11 and it's only possible to choose IRQ 11 or 5. Can i force it to choose IRQ 11 by adding Code: options lirc_it87 irq=11 io=0x0310 Sorry for all questions. - JS36 - 2009-08-06 Now i have uninstalled the new version and installed the one from synaptic, after that i compiled and installed the newer one over it. AND IT'S WORKING FINALLY! Configured with MCE and then changed the REMOTE_MODULES to IT87. Then i Use harmony 555 to act like the MCE remote. Code: # /etc/lirc/hardware.conf - darkattraction - 2009-08-06 happy to see it finally works for the others: if you installed from the source - there is no conf files - you have to run : - "modprobe lirc_it87" that will create /dev/lirc0 - "lircd -d /dev/lirc0 -o /dev/lircd" to launch lirc daemon and create the socket lircd used by xbmc anyway I'm very happy with the pundit (6s to have xbmc running ), the only "problem" I couldn't resolve is to switch on the pundit with my remote ^^ - JS36 - 2009-08-06 I think the easiest way for ubuntu-users is to install lirc first with apt-get and then compile the newer version. If you have more than one kernel make sure the right one is /usr/src/linux couse otherwise the modules will be installed into another kernel. Anyway i have learned alot with all this problems... And now... when im finally done with lirc my FloppyDTV TV-card doesen't want to work Don't know if it's possible to connect the card from the "firewire 1" on the card to the firewireport.. - SmeagolL - 2009-08-06 I give up. Could someone post a detailed how-to from step one? I can't get it to work - darkattraction - 2009-08-07 SmeagolL Wrote:I give up. Could someone post a detailed how-to from step one? I can't get it to work which distribution of Linux do you use? if gentoo I can help you but I don't know very well ubuntu - hope someone can help you - SmeagolL - 2009-08-07 im using ubuntu jaunty jackalope. Is it that different? - SmeagolL - 2009-08-07 you can always write one up for gentoo and ill see if i can make it work - JS36 - 2009-08-07 SmeagolL Wrote:you can always write one up for gentoo and ill see if i can make it workI can help you. Don't give up yet, i had to spend around 20-30h to figure out how to do but learned alot so i think i can help. What type of remote do you use? sudo apt-get install lirc (configure with the remote you want to use, i choose MCEUSB new Philips et al and emulated it with my logitech harmony 555) sudo apt-get install dialog sudo su cd /usr/src wget http://www.lirc.org/software/snapshots/lirc-0.8.6pre1.tar.bz2 tar xvfj lirc-0.8.6pre1 cd lirc-0.8.6pre1 sh setup.sh Driver configuration(1) > IrDa/CIR hardware(6) > ITE IT8712/IT8705/IT8720 CIR port (3) and "save configuration & run configure" in first menu make make install nano /etc/modules add lirc_dev and lirc_it87 nano /etc/lirc/hardware.conf change to this REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_it87" reboot or restart lirc and it should work otherwise try modprobe lirc_dev && modprobe lirc_it87 and see if you get /dev/lirc0 and try sudo mode2 /dev/lirc0 and press buttons on remote And just like darkattraction wrote on #10 Quote:so I added in /etc/conf.d/lirc the option "-o /dev/lircd"To get irw to work you have to do this. - SmeagolL - 2009-08-07 im trying to get a macbook/mac mini remote to work. I'll try on your instructions - SmeagolL - 2009-08-07 i got /dev/lirc0 but i can't run sudo mode2 /dev/lirc0. And i don't have that /etc/conf.d/lirc (reckon it's a gentoo thing?) I'm about giving up on ubuntu, i wanted a simple media center but i can't get the remote working and not the spdif sound. Do you have any problems in gentoo? maybe i should change or simply go to windows x) - JS36 - 2009-08-07 SmeagolL Wrote:i got /dev/lirc0 but i can't run sudo mode2 /dev/lirc0. And i don't have that /etc/conf.d/lirc (reckon it's a gentoo thing?)We'll get this thing working don't worry. Have you tried "sudo modprobe lirc_it87" ? Does it load propertly? What does "cat /var/log/daemon.log | grep lirc" show? |
