I'm using Red Hat 7.0 system. When I try to compile LIRC, "make" prints errors (I can't include error lines here because I'm not on my Linux machine right now). I have succesfully installed & compiled Linux kernel souce. I think the error has something to do with kernel header file in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversion.h (hope I remember the path right). Has anyone else got that kind of problems with LIRC & Redhat 7.0? Thanx for help. -- Jaakko Holster, Finland Email................. ya...@ka... Irc....................

Redhat 7 has a broken compiler. It compiles some programs and doesn't compile others. I had to drop down to egcs-1.1.2 packages (including cpp 1.1.2) to be able to compile the kernel and LIRC. > I'm using Red Hat 7.0 system.

Has anyone else got that kind of problems with LIRC & Redhat 7.0? What version of 'lirc' do you try to compile? I'm using 0.6.2 with RedHat 7 and an IrMan Remote-contol without problems. One known problem with RedHat 7 is, that they ship it with gcc 2.96, which complains about many things that worked before, because it sticks more to the ANSI rules. Due to this "old" 2.2.x-kernels for example won't compile with it. To work around this, RedHat included a rpm called 'kgcc', where 'kgcc' is actually 'egcs' version 2.91.66. One way is to change all makefiles to use 'kgcc' instead of 'gcc' or to replace 'gcc' -- I did the latter: > [root@michael bin]# cd /usr/bin/ > [root@michael bin]# mv gcc gcc.old > [root@michael bin]# ln -s kgcc gcc After doing this, many mysterious compile problems went away for me. Of course YMMV. > Thanx for help. CU, Michael. |

The same error is printed, no matter do I use gcc or kgcc. Which header files should I use when compiling Lirc, those in /usr/include/linux (2.4.x) or /usr/src/linux/include/linux (2.2.x)? I'm just wondering WHY I can't get Lirc compiled and you do NOT have problems... thus we both are using Redhat 7.0! Should I update the buggy glibc library? (causes xmms to crash etc). I guess the easiest way to get Lirc work would be changing Linux distribution... This is not the first time when I've stupid problems with Redhat. -- Jaakko Holster Email................. ya...@ka...

Hi! I've compiled the latest version of lirc and its tools on an ancient Compaq laptop. The lircd daemon is installed and running fine on a 2.4 kernel. :) The irrecord tool has successfully captured the IR codes from a variety of audio/video devices in the house. These can then be played back with the rc tool using the laptop's built-in IR port (lirc_sir module). But, the object of installing lirc was to get the laptop to talk to a Bush internet set top box (STB models IBX100/IBX250/IBX260) [*] I have successfully used irrecord to dump to the lirc.conf file, all the raw infrared keyboard codes from the Bush STB. Unfortunately, I can't get the Bush STB to respond when I then use 'rc' to send it the raw codes from the laptop. I've added a 'frequency' line to lirc.conf and I have varied the freq parameter in 500Hz increments from 5000 up to 50000, and I have tried tweaking the eps and aeps values, but as yet, to no avail :( The irw utility suggests that the irrecord isn't capturing the keycodes properly. For example, holding down the 'B' key might be decoded as [A] [B] [B] [B] [B] (repeats are being picked up..) Is there anything obvious I'm doing wrong? Should I now be looking at tweaking the raw codes in the lirc.conf file? I'll post some 'mode2' output if it's helpful. Thank you, in anticipation :) [*] http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=PRTS20173B6172%40partis.org __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hello -- I'm considering building a serial port IR reciever, but I'm having difficulty locating proper parts. Does anyone have a source for a good IR reciever IC? I'm located in the US. Also, does anyone have experience w/ the reciever circuit from the LIRC site? Is it reliable? Are there alternatives that are better?

I'm using it for more than 9 months without problem. My friend tried it also on windows98 (i'm running linux) with winlirc and girder and again no problems (yes, in fact there was one - he has old computer 233MMX CPU and winamp together with winlirc requires better CPU (but that's not fault of that receiver) - but on the same machine with linux it works (with xmms) fine) > the LIRC site?

I don't think so - it's simple, reliable, cheap - yes, and you don't need another transmiter (if it work with one for e.g. TV,cdplayer... ) (in fact, that is, what i like on it most) - what more can you wish.

Hi, I'm building a lirc package for Freesco. Freesco is a floppy based router, so there no compiler present. I used Slackware 3.9 to compile lirc. It's working ok on that machine. But now i need to transfer all the needed files to my Freesco box. Does anyone have an idea of where to find a list of files needed? And what about the file(s) in /dev can i just tar them and untar them at an other system? or do i need to create them using special commands? Maybe it's possible to issue an command which creates a tar archive for me? Thanx in advance, Jos Hendriks |

Hi! Ramesh Vadamalayan "ram...@re..." wrote: > will a ir receiver designed for serial port with 5 v and 20 mA > current work for parallel port also.. Not really. Interrupts on the parallel port are only generated on one edge of the signal. So you either need a timer circuit like described on the lirc homepage or you'll have to modify the lirc_parallel driver. You'll also need an external power supply. Christoph |

Okay I'm using gentoo linux and I'm using there ebuild which I build from source but for some reason I don't get a config file or /dev entries for anything when I install lirc.

I've encountered the same problem with gentoo, even if I've not so much problem with the good job made by gentoo team. Personnaly, I've downloaded the tar.gz from lirc.org and make installation 'like standard distrib. '. (you need to run emerge dialog or something like that in order to run interactive ./configure of the tar.gz) Don't forget to make install and load your module with good parameters if required (probably you will have to do the setserial uart none (look at lirc.org docs)). It rolls for me. By the way could you submit the problem to gentoo team, it looks like they badly run the make install or whatever the /dev/lirc is not created. Good luck.

ok i've just recieved a Creative Infra Reciever with a Creative PC-DVD remote, and i was wondering if it was supported by lirc, i've tried to set it up myself to no avail, i was wondering if anyone had this same thing, i noticed the Creative Infra Recivers seem to be supported so i think i might be doing something wrong since i get no output when i run "mode2". thanks in advance, even if i can't be helped here. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 3 months FREE*. http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail&xAPID=42&PS=47575&PI=7324&DI=7474&SU= http://www.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/getmsg&HL=1216hotmailtaglines_smartspamprotection_3mf |

Easiest way to see if it works would be with irw. If you managed to config the remote without problems I could think of the following things that are wrong: * lirc isnt using the lircd.conf you made * The programs you try to use it with were not compiled with lircsupport (I know mplayer needs to be recompiled..) * The programs you try to use arent configured to use lirc (lircrc) irw will tell you if lirc is using the right configfile. mplayer should say at startup if its compiled with lirc support. /linus On Fri, 07 Feb 2003 23:10:07 -0500 Karl vom Dorff <kvd...@ms...> wrote: > Geez i am so sick and tired of trying to get lirc to work with my > remote.... > I have read everything and tried everything.. > would anybody be willing to help me via remote assistance in kde? > > I have an avermedia card with the gpio kernel... i compiled the latest > cvs > and it ran without errors. i made my own lircd.conf (so the remote works > cause > i captured the buttons)... > > i just can't get it to work with anything else....like mplayer or xmms or > xawtv... > > my email is kvd...@ms... > > thnx > karl > > > > > |

You can get them working to transmit signals, but the receiving performances are poor. However, you should give more informations. Point out the exact irrecord problem: does it say "something went wrong"? If yes, try with the RAW option (see man irrecord) ciao :) as -- How to build a lirc receiver http://www.manoweb.com/alesan/lirc |

I've got PixelTV PlayTV Pro (PV-BT878P+W/FM) and I'd like to make it work with Mandrake 8.2 (2.4.18). TV display and sound are OK but without remote. INstalled lirc-0.6.6. Proceeded according to install and everything seemed pinky-tickling. But still no remote. Tried with all available drivers (pixelview_pro, pak and 878). When I write mode2 I get message: mode2: error opening /dev/lirc mode2: No such device It may be something with kernel and hot it sees TV Card. Maybe driver lirc_i2c is not installed. Didn't do anything with it. But I saw it in lirc package. If it's the case, please tell me where should it be and how to install it. Please give me some information how to get more information about how to to find out what's wrong. Of course ready solutions (step-by-step or line-by-line) will be warmly welcomed. Thanks for any suggestions. Mac |

Take a look at the documentation again. mode2 only works with homebrew receivers. The PlayTV pro uses the lirc_gpio driver. Check the list archives over the past 2 weeks. There were a couple of messages describing about how to get the PlayTV Pro remote control working.
