Re: 0.7.1 - imon multimode - not a sausage from irw sadness :( - now intermittent events and a hugely large syslog file :\

[AlanM <li...@da...>]

Hi,

thanks for the reply. I have got a long way since then, thanks to 
Christoph, I selected the lircd.conf.imon-rsc config file and now I am 
getting the events from all butons and the pad in irw as expected. I 
have set up lircrc (for mythtv) and this works nicely (if anyone wants a 
copy of my lircrc let me know.. the only thing is I have mapped channel 
change to pad up and down and at the moment there are many events with 
no repeat count set - not good :)

I have one problem though - events are not always received and some of 
the time things hang for a while before starting to work again. Any idea 
why this may be? I have tried all the obvious things - batteries in 
remote(!) loading - nicing lirc etc yet it's still intermittent. If I 
get a freeze and restart irw it works OK and mode2 always shows events 
so I guess its in lirc somewhere.

I am also getting loads of debug in syslog (messages) even though debug 
is definitely off and i'm not using -D , I don't know if it's related.

Has anyone seen behaviour like this and has some suggestions as to what 
I can do?

Incidentally, I tried applying the patch and using  
http://stuff.wishie.net/lircd.conf but then I did not receive any events.


please help

cheers

Alan
