Hi,
I have managed to get the remote working after great help from this forum.
My asrock remote with inbuilt cir works perfectly with xbmc. When i press power button on remote pc will shut down and if i hit the same button pc will wake up and boot to the ubuntu. So all good until i changed the power button to "suspend" in xbmc.
So now it will suspend the pc and the led will show that pc is sleeping. I can press any button on remote or keyboard or mouse and it will not wake up! I have to press power button on pc to wake it up. When it wakes up the remote doesn't work at all. I tried "irw" command and there is no response. I have to type dpkg-reconfigure lirc and set it again after this remote works.
With the wake up on suspend (note wake up from shut-down state works fine) i followed the
http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Enable_Wake-On-Device guide.
I used
Code:
echo CIR> /proc/acpi/wakeup
this will change status to Enabled for CIR with s-state S4.
This didn't help at all. Somewhere I read that i had to change s-state to s3 so i used
Code:
nano /proc/acpi/wakeup
and changed S4 to S3 for CIR. The problem here is that I cant save it. It will actually say that its saved but its not.
Anybody else got the same problem?
btw im using ubuntu 9.10 and latest xbmc 9.11 r1. I tried xbmc live 9.11 beta2 with same problems.
