It seems like that happened between .7 and .8, but I'm not positive, but the differences between the lircd.conf files included in each release made me think that must have been when it happened, again they were: lircd.conf.realmagic from 0.7 http://friendlyconfines.org/lircd.conf.realmagic.7.txt lircd.conf.realmagic from 0.8 http://friendlyconfines.org/lircd.conf.realmagic.8.txt where 0.7 worked fine, now in 0.8 the same configuration file has been changed to specifically mention "Not for use with the serial port connected IR receiver" and I was just annoyed whoever didn't write that comment, didn't mention what I was supposed to use instead. It's not a huge deal, the remote still works besides the non-repeating, and I'm sure there aren't too many other people out there still using this remote who give a crap... but I do! |
