soundgraph veris (15c2:0042) don't work

[moebius <moe...@fr...>]

Bonsoir,

I've recently bought a Antec Veris Multimedia Station E-Z with a rm100 
remote

You can see it here :

Ok,
  I run an ubuntu precise but with xfce  ; anyway on another computer 
(an acer laptop) with a native precise ubuntu, results are the same ones.

uname -a says :
Linux ordi-moebius 3.2.0-35-lowlatency #34-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Tue Dec 18 
18:12:15 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Generic kernel gives same results anyway...
My keyboard is a french one (well nothing special, I'm french ;)  )

when typing dpkg-reconfigure lirc, I've tried several possibilities  for 
remote control configuration :
1/ Soundgraph iMON Antec Veris

I use rhythmbox with the integrated lirc plugin

Just few keys work :

enter key => play current song ; when pressing again, song is played 
again from beginning

keys up and down change selected song in  good direction

mute key lead to pop up a xfce (gnome?) notification on the top right 
corner (a crossed loudspeaker) but without any effect.

SO I've also try to extract only the rm100 code and put it in a file 
named rm100.conf that I include in lircd.conf but I obtain the same result


lircd.conf :
#Configuration for the Soundgraph iMON Antec Veris remote:
include "/etc/lirc/rm100.conf"

rm100.conf  :

       end codes

end remote



2/ linux input layer with several possible devices :

/dev/input/by-id/usb-15c2_0042-event-if00
Nothing work except play/pause key but just for playing, mute key acts 
as said before

/dev/input/by-id/usb-15c2_0042-event-mouse
and
/dev/input/by-id/usb-15c2_0042-mouse

Same result than with Soundgraph  iMON Antec Veris except key play/pause 
don't make anything


Last thing, everytime I'm trying to reconfigure lirc, dmesg says :

imon 4-3:1.0: Unsupported IR protocol specified, overriding to iMON IR 
protocol

Well I'm a little lost ; it seems very hard to make these remotes working

So if someone could bring some help, it would be very nice.

cordialement,
