I am using the lirc-gpio patch with the 2.6.0-test11 kernel latest kraxel patches but I am getting nothing in /dev/input/event0 I am unable to load the lirc-gpio module automatically insmod fails but modprobe loads the modules without any problems, depmod shows nothing. here is what I get in /var/log/messages after loading the module Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_gpio (-1): card type 0x4e, id 0x0 Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:sample_rate: 12 Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_gpio (0): driver registered but when I press any buttons on the remote control cat < /dev/input/event0 shows nothing any ideas on how to get the remote to work ? any site that nay have information about it ? BTW : I build lirc from cvs I am running redhat 9. I am suing a Kworld card which loads fine I can watch tv fine. Thanks Alvaro |

Thanks so much for your prompt reply I have a KWorld card and I would like to use the remote control to watch tv or control mplayer. What are the possible paths to reach the goal ? I have lirc compile from cvs. for module I picked the " Input Layer " Thanks Alvaro Stefan Lange wrote: Alvaro Garriga wrote: > I am using the lirc-gpio patch with the 2.6.0-test11 kernel latest > kraxel patches > but I am getting nothing in /dev/input/event0 > what exactly are you trying to do? either use kraxel patches (and no gpio) if you've got a hauppauge or saa7xxx card, or use the other lirc-patches for 2.6 (and not kraxel) if you've got any other receiver. > I am unable to load the lirc-gpio module automatically insmod fails > but modprobe loads the modules > without any problems, depmod shows nothing. > > here is what I get in /var/log/messages after loading the module > > Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver > registered, at major 61 > Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_gpio (-1): card type 0x4e, id 0x0 > Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_dev: > lirc_register_plugin:sample_rate: 12 > Dec 18 06:39:01 localhost kernel: lirc_gpio (0): driver registered > > but when I press any buttons on the remote control cat < > /dev/input/event0 shows nothing > any ideas on how to get the remote to work ? any site that nay have > information about it ? > the lirc_gpio driver has nothing to do with /dev/input/eventX > > BTW : > I build lirc from cvs I am running redhat 9.

just curious If - I use the lirc-gpio module where do the events go ? /dev/lirc ? - I use kraxel patches where do the events go ? /dev/input/event0 ? Will the cvs version of lirc work with the 2.6 kernels ? Thanks Alvaro |

I use lirc with a KWorld card, using the driver for jetway and kworld (card=78 of bttv), using lirc cvs version. Actually, I'm using 2.6.0 version (at the moment mine adapted when I was without net access, I'm going to try some better adapted), and using userspace tools, without problems.

For 2.6.0 you must try a patch to add lirc support to it. You might want to apply kraxel patches but not the ir-receiver ones. > compile lirc from cvs and select the bttv module. .. and that is it right. When you select the right card from the list in configure, it builds lirc_gpio module, that use bttv's gpio to get codes from the receiver. After load the lirc_gpio module, you can receive the remote codes from /dev/lirc0 or (if you use devfs) /dev/lirc/lirc0 (should be... in my patches for 2.6.0 was this). You should use the lircd daemon and build the software you want to remote control with lirc support (if they have), and then edit ~/.lircrc file with commands to send to the program. -- Flameeyes <dg...@us...> http://flameeyes.web.ctonet.it/ |

Thanks so much for your reply I follow your advise here is what I got but still can not receive any events from the remote. 1- Start with fresh 2.6.0 kernel 2- Apply an lirc patch from https://profilo.dyndns.org/lirc/ 3- build kernel 5- reboot 6- got lirc from cvs , configure to use Kword card ( card 78 ) try to build it but failed while building lirc-Dev.c so I manuallly went into the daemos directory and invoke make && make install, I did the same in the tools directory.

I made several different attempts to install lirc, but with no avail. As I am not fully aware which information may be relevant to the problem, I enclose only the log fragments of my attempts to create modules automatically with dpkg-reconfigure lirc-modules-source. I will be only too happy to provide additional information on request. I am looking forward to any comments and suggestions.

[...] I didn't manage to solve this problem, perhaps I was unable to find the right source for my kernel (only recently I got the idea to use the source package of `kernel-image-2.4.20-3-k7' instead of `kernel-source-2.4.20'). However I circumvented the obstacle by compiling, with some help of my more experienced colleague, kernel 2.4.20 and lirc modules for it.=20 The modules where loaded without any parameters with modconf. I used lirc from the Debian package, during installation it was configured for my card and remote (AverMedia AverTV Studio 203), but it didn't worked. The posting at the address http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/3680/2001/6/0/5931219/ made me aware that I have to provide appropriate parameters to lirc_gpio. To quote the LIRC documentation: AVerMedia - TVCapture98 and TVPhone98 (pre 98 also) - parameters: gpio_mask=3D0xf88000, gpio_lock_mask=3D0x10000, gpio_xor_mask=3D0x10000, soft_gap=3D0, sample_rate=3D10 Therefore I removed the lirc modules with modconf. When I try to load them with modprobe, I get the message too many values for gpio_mask This happens independently of whether I specify any parameter or not. I am now again totally confused.

I still have the problem described below, but once I managed somehow to load the lirc_gpio module. Unfortunately, at first I loaded it with the parameters specified in http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/3680/2001/6/0/5931219/ namely modprobe [...] gpio_xor_mask=3D0x10000 soft_gap=3D0 sample_rate=3D10 card= =3D41 ^^^^^^^ I understand that the card parameter specifies not the type of the card, the the card number in the system and should be left at its default value. Nevertheless the results of an attempt to start the lirc demon was a lot of messages lirc_gpio (41): cannot read GPIO which is consistent with my interpretation of the card parameter. However, when I used modprobe lirc_gpio gpio_mask=3D0xf88000, gpio_lock_mask=3D0x10000, = gpio_xor_mask=3D0x10000, soft_gap=3D0, sample_rate=3D10 I got also an error, although a slightly diffrent one, namely a lot of messages lirc_gpio (0): gpio_val is f6fff0 What is it supposed to mean? When I tried to repeat the experiment again, I still have the problem described below. I still have no idea which factor caused the different behaviour of the system. I looking forward to your suggestions. Regards Janusz On 07 Feb 2004 js...@mi... (Janusz S.

I am able now to load lirc_gpio but lirc doesn't work :-( The module is loaded with the message lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 lirc_gpio (-1): card type 0x29, id 0x31461 lirc_gpio (0): driver registered Is this what should be expected? When lircd starts, it reports lircd 0.6.6[331]: lircd(any) ready Shouldn't it say "lirc(avermedia)" or something similar? To be on the safe side I've done "dpkg-reconfigure lirc" choosing "Avermedia TV card", but nothing changed. When I start irw and press the keys on the remote, nothing happens expect for the log message lircd 0.6.6[331]: accepted new client on /dev/lircd When I try irrecord, I get irrecord: gap no find, can't continue I will appreciate very much your suggestions!
