A bit more info. Testing with msoft old usb receiver usb dongle and remote...and a completely different system. This is a quadcore w/ubuntu 8.10 32-bit, 4gb, ... The dongle registers as: Jan 30 21:03:41 father kernel: [ 3742.496907] usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 Jan 30 21:03:41 father kernel: [ 3742.738582] usb 5-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Jan 30 21:03:41 father kernel: [ 3742.741095] lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 80 Same symptoms but I can get more presses out until it fails (like 10-15). After waiting 5-20 secs I can get a few more presses in (shown via irw) before it seems to hang. Nothing in dmesg/daemons.log/messages. I am using latest ubuntu version of lirc/modules and building for remote=usb mce old and transmitter = usb2/motorola as I have a Comcast digital cable box. I have successfully built lirc in the past and had none of these issues. Now it's starting to be the hangup in my linuxmce plans. mike Mike Klein wrote: > Any ideas of what my cause failure after a few presses?
