[Bug 176613] Re: Snapstream Firefly remote not working

 

We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve
Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The
biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes
this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in
the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a
new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer
versions.

Title:
  Snapstream Firefly remote not working

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Expired

Bug description:
  This remote is listed in the Mythbuntu 7.10 Control Center as
  Snapstream X10 Remote, but does not work when selected.  As a
  diagnostic step, I ran irw, but there was no response to key presses
  from the remote.

  I tried several things In the ubuntu community forum description of
  the lirc installation procedure, but to no avail.  However, I found a
  thread from someone having a similar problem.  Following their advice,
  I found that the names that refer to this remote in hardware.conf,
  lircd.conf, and lircrc are inconsistent.  The name "Snapstream X10
  Remote" is used in hardware.conf.  The name Snapstream Firefly is used
  in lircd.conf, and lircrc just uses Snapstream.  I changed all the
  names to Snapstream to get it to work.

  I did not attempt to determine whether the earlier changes I made
  affected operation of the remote or not, but clearly the names in the
  files should be corrected.
