[Bug 927526] Re: missing support for some LIRC devices

 

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel for Oneiric in
-proposed solves the problem (linux-ti-omap4 3.0.0-1207.17). Please test
the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is
solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-oneiric' to 'verification-
done-oneiric'.

If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be
dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  The following issue was reported on the Pandaboard mailing list by Raju in the "LIRC installation is failed on both Ubuntu-11.10 and Linaro-Ubuntu" topic:
  <<< Start of quote ---
  On my PanadaBoard, RevA2. I am trying to enable USB based Remote 
  (MCE). 
  While installing LIRC, I am getting following errors. 

  /lib/module/3.1.0-1282-omap4/kernel/drivers/staging/lirc: not found 
  /lib/module/3.1.0-1282-omap4/kernel/drivers/media/rc: not found 

  I tried this on both Ubuntu-11.10 and Linaro-Ubuntu-12.01. 
  Issue is same on both. 

  --- end of quote >>>

  After quick verification, it appears the LIRC_STAGING kernel flag (and
  it's dependents) is disable in the ti-omap4 defconfig, while it's
  enabled for other configurations (see
  debian.master/config/config.common.ubuntu).

  The kernel version reported above is from a kernel in the TI public
  ppa, but the LIRC kernel configuration is aligned with the official
  Ubuntu one, so the same problem shall appear on boths.

  I'm not sure about the drivers/media/rc error though...
