[LINUX] Antec Veris Basic - iMon 15c2:0043 receiver Ubuntu 12.04

seribralcrow · 2012-04-21 14:58

Every forum I have found only has guides for the 0038 and ffdc receivers. I have tried to adapt them to work with my version with no success. Does anyone have this type of receiver? I have tried it with and without lirc using ir-keytables. ir-keytables recognizes my receiver but the test doesn't display anything. I have tried running Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04. Currently I have 12.04 installed on my machine.

cat /proc/bus/input/device:

I: Bus=0003 Vendor=15c2 Product=0043 Version=0002

B: MSC=10

sudo ir-keytables:

Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event12) with:
Driver imon, table rc-imon-pad
Supported protocols: RC-6 other
Enabled protocols:
Repeat delay = 500 ms, repeat period = 125 ms

I would really appreciate it if anyone could help. This setup has been quite frustrating for me.

May you give us the output of lsmod ?
Your remote should work out of the box with default linux kernel and this without lirc. Check if you have the following module : rc_core, rc_imon_pad, imon.

Here is the information you requested. The modules you listed are indeed started but I am not able to make the remote work. Is there any special configuration that I must do?

I looked over this thread and it would not work for me. To ensure that the receiver functioned properly I verifed its functionality on a windows install. The receiver and remote work exceptionally well in windows. When I ran dmesg it seems to configure properly. However, I get no IR input signals when I run ir-keytables. To ensure this was not something that I had done wrong, I am using a fresh install of 12.04 with ir-keytable installed only. I am doing this to eliminate the possibility of conflicts. The author states that if you are receiving no input then the driver is not configured or installed properly. How can I verify/correct this?

I'm running into the same problem. Something's not right on ubuntu 12.04. I also tried the old lirc approach (without devinput), but even then it won't budge.

With help from Sparkie2640

Try:

Code:

ir-keytable -c

ir-keytable -w /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_mce

ir-keytable -t

Hitting a few buttons made my remote respond.
