MosChip 7780

[Jan E. <jan...@gm...>]

Hi everybody,

I am trying to get my USB-IR receiver (MosChip 7780) running on Ubuntu
10.04 and lirc.
What I have done is following this HowTo (in Italian, but Google
Translate works fine for me):
http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/index.php?topic=182671.msg2035286

After that I get this output when I type irdadump irda0:

07:05:07.973392 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=0 (14)
07:05:08.073326 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=1 (14)
07:05:08.173326 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=2 (14)
07:05:08.273326 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=3 (14)
07:05:08.373336 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=4 (14)
07:05:08.473324 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=5 (14)
07:05:08.573325 xid:cmd cfff4c10 > ffffffff S=6 s=* faustus hint=0400 [
Computer ] (23)

A lsmod | grep mcs7780 outputs:

mcs7780                 7358  0
irda                  186556  3 ircomm_tty,ircomm,mcs7780
crc_ccitt               1339  2 mcs7780,irda

I tried a dpkg-reconfigure lirc to setup an appropriate Device, but I am
not sure which device I should take.

Can you give me any hints? Thx in advance from Germany,

Jan
