Hi,
I am trying to get a fairly cheap and generic Hp receiver/transceiver to work with LIRC and ubuntu 10.4. I don't feel I am that far off getting something to happen, I am just at my wits end with this.
The transceiver is ostensibly a USB Hewlett Packard TSGI-IR01, in Windows it appears as an "eHome Infared Transceiver". In other Linux distributions is has been listed as a Fintek IR receiver. I don't know if that difference implies a cheap knock off or not. I have been trying both a Logitech 525 remote (with appropriate Windows Media Center configuration) and a generic WMC remote with the receiver. The receiver flashes when I press buttons on a remote, so I know it is physically working.
I get no response after trying irw, and irrecord -d /dev/lirc test gives the following response
lsusb gives the following. 1934:5168 is the (Fintek) reciever.Code:irrecord: could not get file information for /dev/lirc irrecord: default_init(): No such file or directory irrecord: could not init hardware (lircd running ? --> close it, check permissions)
lsmod | fgrep "lirc" gives meCode:Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1934:5168 Bus 002 Device 002: ID 07d1:3c07 D-Link System Wireless G DWA-110 Adapter Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
No /dev/lirc0? I think there is a big problem here.Code:lirc_mceusb 12068 0 lirc_dev 8890 1 lirc_mceusb
Here are some of my conf. files
