[Bug 992754] [NEW] MCEUSB IR transmitt not working 12.04

 

Public bug reported:

I have attempted several times to upgrade my working 11.10-0.25
Backend/frontend. Everything seems to work other than a few frontend
crashes (bug 990536) and failure of ir transmitt with mceusb.

I have verified that all the lirc config files are the same between the
two installs and still no ir blaster with 12.04.  Today I attempted to
do a clean install to see if I could determine a problem with upgrade.

I noticed that even though I selected both remote and transmitter during
setup(mceusb and dctxxxx.conf), only the MCEUSB was configured in
Hardware.conf. I manually configured the lirc config files in the fresh
install to coincide with those in my 11.10 working install and restated
lirc. I can now verify that the remote works and the ir transmitter does
not.

I used the same change_mce,sh channel change script (uses set 2) and
verified that irsend set 1 did not work from console.

I am stumped, but I am willing to try again if anyone has any ideas.
