can't get DVICO remote working

[Kirby B. <ki...@ma...>]

Help!

I'm running kernel '2.6.14-gentoo-r5'. I've configured/compiled the=20
kernel with

<*> USB Human Interface Device (full HID) support
=E2=94=82 =E2=94=82[*] /dev/hiddev raw HID device support

This message is displayed from 'dmesg':

usbcore: registered new driver hiddev
hiddev96: USB HID v1.10 Device [DVICO DVICO USB HID Remocon V1.00] on=20
usb-0000:00:0b.0-2
usbcore: registered new driver usbhid
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver

I downloaded lirc, untar'red it, chose the USB DVICO device, compile norm=
ally, did a make install, and get this as 'version' info:

lircd 0.8.0pre4

I run /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=3Ddvico --device=3D/dev/usb/hiddev0 =
--nodaemon=20

in and in another window, and run /usr/local/bin/irw. =20

This is the output from the lircd window:

/usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=3Ddvico --device=3D/dev/usb/hiddev0 --noda=
emon
lircd: lircd(H=3D) ready
lircd: accepted new client on H=3D
lircd: initializing '(null)'
lircd: removed client
lircd: closing '(null)'


And of course, no output is detected by irw...  The 'null'  seems to be t=
he problem? =20

I run ' irrecord --device=3D/dev/usb/hiddev0 --driver=3Ddvico /etc/lircd.=
conf' and it would appear that my IR receiver is detecting something..  T=
hhe 'lircd.conf' is for a Fusion remote that I found somewhere....'

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
