Re: hauppauge HVR-1250

[Alexander K. <Ale...@fc...>]

I have probably made a slight mess of things with all of the installs  
I have tried following these that or the other instrcutions trying to  
get it to work.

Why don't we start with number 5 first as I think this is my biggest  
problem.

> 5.  Do  you have the correct lircd.conf and  ~/.lircrc file for your  
> remote?
Well I am not positive I have tried so many different ways of getting  
lirc to run that I can't be positive. Most recently I believe I have  
tried all 4 setup.sh options for hauppauge cards in the setup.sh for  
lircd & lirc 0.8.5 cvs for pvr150 tarball

Driver:Tv card:
g: Hauppauge TV cared
h. Hauppauge HVR-1300
i. Hauppauge PVR-150 TV cared (new I2C layer Required)
j.Hauppauge DVB-s card (ver 2.1)  {currently installed with save & run  
configure}


here is the start of it.

  just the grep.

even after doing a modprobe lirc_dev debug=1  && modprobe lirc_pvr150  
debug =1
(there does not seem to be anything for an lirc_dvbs )
