[Bug 778296] Re: lirc not working correctly on 2.6.38 kernel
Ok I understand Tivo remote to be different beast. So I am trying to
get hauppauge remote to get working.
I upgraded to 2.6.39 rc5 kernel and still dont see any output on irw. I
change protocol to rc-5 for hauppauge remote using following ir-keytable
-p RC-5. or echo rc-5 > /sys/class/rc/rc0/protocols. Still nothing
with irw. I get some output on ir-keytable -t as follows.

Title:
lirc not working correctly on 2.6.38 kernel
Status in “lirc” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Binary package hint: lirc
lirc not working correctl y on 2.6.38 kernel. I reverted back to lirc
not working correctly on 2.6.35 kernel and it starts working. I
understand that mceusb is now part of kernel driver. So I have
accordingly changed hardware.conf. I dont see anything on irw or ir-
keytable -t when i press my remote(s). Tried multiple remotes to see
the input. I can confirm that there is /dev/lirc0. When I do cat
/dev/lirc0 and press remote I see garbage spew on the screen.
My IR Receiver is
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0471:0815 Philips (or NXP) eHome Infrared Receiver
