[Bug 1019494] Re: Hauppage ir remote control doesn't work

 

As far as I can tell, this is fixed in 14.04.

However, as networking in 14.04 using my e1000e base adaptor appears to
be broken, my testing was restricted (appeared to receive packets but
not send anything). I couldn't install the ir-keytable package required
for testing.

I ended up booting 14.04, nightly build from about 29/1/2014, and chroot
to my old 12.04 user tools. This odd configuration seemed to work fine.
As the problem was in the kernel, not in user space, am assuming this
means the user tools from 14.04 should also work fine.

Title:
  Hauppage ir remote control doesn't work

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hello,

  None of the buttons on the remote control work. If I boot an older
  kernel it works fine.

  root@oncilla:~# ir-keytable

  Note it is getting the scancodes, but it is not getting the translated
  key presses.

  In Ubuntu 11.10 I had an issue that is exactly the same, and managed
  to get this patch to resolve it:

  http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git?a=commitdiff;h=5183c137974da0c8192fc4c5cc5cae5974125b06

  Did this patch ever get into the kernel tree used by Ubuntu?

  Unfortunately, my time is rather limited at present, so is my ability
  to chase this up again.

  Thanks
