mceusb in 0.8.6 generates double key presses

[Andy S. <a_s...@ya...>]

Hi all,

I have just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 and got all new lirc 0.8.6.
My setup consists of a simple USB IR receiver:

Bus 004 Device 002: ID 195d:7002 Itron Technology iONE Libra-Q11 IR remote

and a remote from my HDTV set (Viewsonic). With the previous
lirc versions everything was working OK with mceusb2 and irrecord-generated
config file. With the new version I needed to replace mceusb2 with mceusb,
but now I face very strange problem. Basically every button press on a 
remote
generates two button presses in lirc. Here is an example irw output:

00000000c1cf649b 00 Up viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cf649b 00 Up viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cf946b 00 Right viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cf946b 00 Right viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfe41b 00 Down viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfe41b 00 Down viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cf14eb 00 Left viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cf14eb 00 Left viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma

every button press generates two lines and they indeed look like two 
separate
key presses, as the sequence number is not changing. Sometimes I could
make it generate just one line if I do very quick tap on a button, but 
it is
very tricky.

When I press and hold a button it does not work right too, most of the time
it generates separate events (all with counter 0), sometimes it starts 
incrementing
it but then resets again. Here is irw output for single press and hold:

00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 01 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 01 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 01 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma
00000000c1cfa45b 00 Enter viewsonic-wma

I tried to regenerate config file for remote with irrecord, but the new 
file is
identical to the old one (timings slightly different) and still 
generated two
events per button press.

I would appreciate any help with this issue, currently the remote is 
practically
unusable, and I'd hate to downgrade Ubuntu to an older version just because
of this issue. I can provide any additional info and maybe do some simple
debugging, but I have very little knowledge about lirc and its drivers.

Thanks,
Andy.
