Debian LIRC - Hauppauge PCI TV-card struggle no output from irw
I've been fighting with LIRC for a week now and I just can't make it work. The remote seems to work but LIRC doesn't pick up the signals. That's as far as I understand what's going on.
I have a Hauppauge WinTV-PC-FM model 647 (printed on the box). The output of lspci is included below. Also the box says: "Year 2000 compliant" (so this card has no excuse whatsoever :scratch:).
But seriously.
What does work?
- In console I do get [0-9] showing up at the terminal if I press the buttons on the remote. That's not supposed to happen I guess, but that shows at least the remote and PCI card work properly and that the kernel has recognised them.
- starting or stopping lirc has no effect on the point above.
- ir-keytable -t gives me all the keys and scancodes so again, the remote and PCI card work well.
- when I start lirc and issue "irw", I get no more output, it seems like the remote stops working.
- The volume up/down/mute do work in my desktop environment (XFCE4)
- Volume up and down stop working when I start lirc and run irw. When I ^c irw it starts working again. Starting/stopping lirc on itself has no effect.
- if I start irexec: also it seems like the remote stops working both on the command line and in X, also ir-keytable -t no longer produces output.
And then some info I thought might be relevant:
