Hi,
I am trying to setup LIRC but I have problems. I'm using lircd 0.8.6
and I have HP pavilion notebook with RC-6 remote control. I created
config file with irrecord which is:
Code:
# Please make this file available to others
# by sending it to <lirc@bartelmus.de>
#
# this config file was automatically generated
# using lirc-0.8.6(default) on Mon Jul 26 22:34:25 2010
#
# contributed by
#
# brand: lircd.conf
# model no. of remote control:
# devices being controlled by this remote:
#
begin remote

end codes
end remote
I found another config for my controller which has same values.
Nevertheless with this config I cannot get anything recognized with
irw! I tried to create config with RAW codes but all I can get is:
Code:
Please enter the name for the next button (press <ENTER> to finish recording)
KEY_POWER
Now hold down button "KEY_POWER".
Got it.
Signal length is 68
That's weird because the signal length must be odd!
Try again.
Got it.

and so on..
I am using 2.6.34-020634-generic kernel on Ubuntu Lucid. Here's
hardware.conf just in case:
Code:
# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
#
#Chosen Remote Control
REMOTE="None"
REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_serial"
REMOTE_DRIVER="default"
REMOTE_DEVICE=""
REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF=""
REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""
#Chosen IR Transmitter
TRANSMITTER="None"
TRANSMITTER_MODULES=""
TRANSMITTER_DRIVER=""
TRANSMITTER_DEVICE=""
TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_CONF=""
TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_ARGS=""
#Enable lircd
START_LIRCD="true"
#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file
#START_LIRCMD="false"
#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES="true"
# Default configuration files for your hardware if any
LIRCMD_CONF=""
#Forcing noninteractive reconfiguration
#If lirc is to be reconfigured by an external application
#that doesn't have a debconf frontend available, the noninteractive
#frontend can be invoked and set to parse REMOTE and TRANSMITTER
#It will then populate all other variables without any user input
#If you would like to configure lirc via standard methods, be sure
#to leave this set to "false"
FORCE_NONINTERACTIVE_RECONFIGURATION="false"
START_LIRCMD=""
And here's output of mode2:

Apparently it only recognizes Display button. Here's the thread that I've posted on ubuntuforums:

And no one can help me. Could it be that this cannot be fixed?? I am getting desperate :/
Please help!
