Uninstall the older one (if any), instal this one and reconfigure lircd (dpkg-reconfigure).

Cheers.

Nice thanks!! works like a charm! Didn't know a new one was out Smile

This worked for me (and I'm on 2.6.32-24 64bit)!!

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!! 30 minutes ago reinstalled my system after some crash with lirc, kernel, modules testing and now i see new drivers...

Really nice when they made "linux" drivers they made them ubuntu specific -.-

Found two threads where people got it running on diff versions of linux:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=727145

and

http://forum.sabayon.org/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=20113&start=10&sid=ab6e422f1cfa6157c2102c3dc49f8163

Am trying to use the information contained to get it working on gentoo. Will post back if/when i do.

Also if anyone got or gets this working on gentoo give me a shout please Smile

It looks like Asrock are going to add new drivers everytime a new kernel comes out and they break. Why else would they add a new section in downloads on there site? anyone else get this impression ?


- X3lectric - 2010-08-12 22:13

have test drivers for the asrock on ppa... they should work for every kernel upgrade.

to test them I suggest a full backup, just in case.

find them here for karmic and lucid...

Wow very nice X3lectric. So these will build each time a new kernel is released ? Or ?.

Hi all,

First off, thanks for all of your help so far! Lots of useful information in this forum.

I also have an Asrock ION 330HT, run XBMC just as a program, not as it's own session, on Lucid 10.04, 2.6.32-24-generic kernel.

I tried X3's package, but it didn't work, anyone else have any luck? Or am I missing something? After installing the packages, selecting the correct receiver in LIRC, should it just work in XBMC or is there more setup to do?

Thanks.

hmm, i still cant get mine to work. im on latest Dharma Beta 1 release on 2.6.32.24 (just did a sudo apt-get upgrade) 32bit (maybe the 64bit one works and the 32bit one doesn't ?)
is there any way I could downgrade back to 2.6.32-23 so I can get it working ?

ps I tried both the B CIR receiver driver and source code for Ubuntu 10.04 32/64 bit ver:1.0.4 and the newer version from here ...

http://www.asrock.com/nettop/download.asp?Model=ION%20330HT-BD&o=Linux

neither worked (i tried the non-newer version first)


ps whenever I press buttons on my remote, the orange activity light on the 330HT does flicker - does this indicate that LIRC is receiving something but doens't know what to do with it ??

ive sent asrock support an email regarding if they're planning on releasing a 2.6.32-24 kernel CIR driver. Lets wait and see what they come up with Cool
