Hi, I've just tried swapping the key code for up and back, and now the old button for backspace does up as intended, but the old button for up never does backspace.
This is my mapping file: ==> universal_wr7 <== # Adapted from Apple Remote by Sab, Universal WR7 0x77e1503d KEY_UP 0x77e1303d KEY_DOWN 0x77e1903d KEY_LEFT 0x77e1603d KEY_RIGHT 0x77e1a03d KEY_ENTER 0x77e1c03d KEY_BACKSPACE I have a init.d script that is the following: #!/usr/bin/env bash echo 'Modprobing...' modprobe -r nuvoton_cir sleep 1 echo 'Echoing...' echo "auto" > /sys/bus/acpi/devices/NTN0530\:00/physical_node/resources sleep 1 echo 'Modprobing...' modprobe nuvoton-cir sleep 1 echo 'Clearing the old keytable...' ir-keytable -c sleep 1 echo 'Injecting the new keytable...' ir-keytable -p NEC,RC-5,RC-6,JVC,SONY,LIRC -w /etc/rc_keymaps/universal_wr7 echo 'Done.' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to v4l-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1461668 Title: ir-keytable presses recognised but not working Status in v4l-utils package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm using ir-keytable to map button presses on a remote control to keyboard presses. I'm using an old Apple remote and after scanning for the keycodes I've produced a keymap file which is loaded by ir- keytable. However, I have only succeeded in getting the arrow keys and enter working (KEY_UP, KEY_DOWN, KEY_LEFT, KEY_RIGHT, KEY_ENTER). All the other keypresses that I've tried are recognised by ir-keytable, but are not being passed to the system. For example, the KEY_BACKSPACE which I need. Running ir-keytable -t and pressing the relevant remote button I get: 1433359068.641206: event type EV_KEY(0x01) key_down: KEY_BACKSPACE(0x0001) 1433359068.641206: event type EV_SYN(0x00). 1433359068.641230: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x77e1c03d 1433359068.641230: event type EV_SYN(0x00). 1433359068.641235: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x77e1c03d 1433359068.641235: event type EV_SYN(0x00). But it never works as backspace. For example, if I open a text editor and use the arrow or enter keys, I can see the cursor moving around. But the backspace does not work. Also any other keymap that I've tried (e.g. numbers, letters) does not work. I'm using ir-keytable 1.6.0-2 in xubuntu 15.04. My system is a NUC5i5RYHK, the IR driver is nuvoton-cir. The output of ir-keytable is: Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event3) with: Driver nuvoton-cir, table rc-rc6-mce Supported protocols: NEC RC-5 RC-6 JVC SONY SANYO LIRC RC-5-SZ SHARP XMP other Enabled protocols: NEC RC-5 RC-6 JVC SONY LIRC Name: Nuvoton w836x7hg Infrared Remote bus: 25, vendor/product: 1050:00c3, version: 0x0033 Repeat delay = 500 ms, repeat period = 125 ms To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/v4l-utils/+bug/1461668/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
