Hi all,
I'm trying to get lirc to work with my Hauppauge on my Debian
installation on AMD64. I've used module assistant to create the lirc
kernel modules and the modules install and modprobe successfully:
# lsmod | grep lirc
lirc_i2c 14980 0
lirc_dev 20264 1 lirc_i2c
i2c_core 27776 6
lirc_i2c,cx88xx,bttv,i2c_algo_bit,tveeprom,i2c_nforce2
Once the modules are loaded, I can't talk to the /dev/lirc file with
mode2 or anything else, so I think there may be something wrong with
the udev rules, the only entry I can find is in the
/etc/udev/permissions.rules file:
KERNEL=="lirc[0-9]*", GROUP="video"
Am I missing something?
Apparently, since you mention /dev/lirc in the same sentence claiming
udev only supports lirc[0-9]*. :-)
I think /dev/lirc is, or was, the upstream default device.
Ok, you got me on that one, I don't know the details of how udev works :)
So /dev/lirc should be created when the modules load, correct?
I think that is (or was) the upstream (i.e. non-debian) device name. Now you
have lirc0 for the first device, followed by lirc1, lirc2, etc. If you are
using athe upstream version of /etc/init.d/lirc it could still use /dev/lirc,
but I'm not sure about that. I ran into this problem with Sarge because the
mceusb driver was not supported yet.
