  don't work with dev/input

  Expired

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I just filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythbuntu-
  control-centre/+bug/482961 about setting up my remote. This is working
  well for me, but even with everything set up properly, there are a
  number of buttons that do not work correctly.

  I will attach a photo of the remote, so you can see all of the
  buttons.

  Pressing each of these buttons into irw, I get the following:

  I tried to generate my own irrecord file (which I will attach), but
  the codes that irrecord received from dev/input were wrong in the same
  way as above (e.g. TimeShifting gave the same code 0x0002 as key
  number 1).

  This person has generated an irrecord file that seems to have different (correct?) frequencies for each of the above:
  http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9265
  http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9265?getfile=1768
  Putting this file in the place of the /usr/share/lirc/remotes/leadtek/lircd.conf.RM-0010 file does not work any better than the default, which suggests to me that the dev/input driver isn't sending the correct frequencies to the event.  The fact that somebody else managed to get the frequencies from dev/input to the event in archlinux suggests that it could be an Ubuntu thing.

  It would clearly be great if all the buttons worked, as then the MythTV config could include those extra buttons. See my MythTV lirc config here:
  http://pastebin.com/f62afb3cf
  to see the missing/not-working buttons in amongst the settings for the working ones.

  I've already put a lot of time into debuging what is wrong with this
  and writing the above-linked guides, so I would be happy to do some
  debugging etc. to finally get support for this report over the line.

  I have filed this against Mythbuntu as I just do not know whether this
  is a bug in LIRC or the kernel driver for the bttv.
