Macbook, kernel26 and lirc support

Because applier patch was only for kernel < 2.6.22, all macbook users should use lirc. So I've run pacman, and try to configure it

    [ root ] pacman -S lirc

    [ root ] irrecord -d /dev/usb/hiddev0 /etc/lircd.conf

irrecord -  application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc

Copyright (C) 1998,1999 Christoph Bartelmus(lirc@bartelmus.de)

irrecord: could not get hardware features
irrecord: this device driver does not support the new LIRC interface
irrecord: major number of /dev/usb/hiddev0 is 180
irrecord: LIRC major number is 61
irrecord: check if /dev/usb/hiddev0 is a LIRC device
irrecord: could not init hardware (lircd running ? --> close it, check permissions)

There's /dev/lirc0 file, but it's always empty, and cat /dev/usb/hiddev0 is showing some info while using apple remote.
Does anybody configured that?

Re: Macbook, kernel26 and lirc support

hi,
there was no macmini driver in 0.8.2, so you should update lirc and lirc-utils to 0.8.3pre1.

$  makepkg 
: command not found

'KGBUILD: line 18: syntax error near unexpected token `{
'KGBUILD: line 18: `build() {
 is not available for the 'i686' architecture.
    Note that many packages may need a line added to their PKGBUILD
    such as arch=('i686').
$ grep arch PKGBUILD 
# Maintainer: Paul Mattal <paul@archlinux.org>
pkgdesc="Linux Infrared Remote Control kernel modules for stock arch kernel"
arch=(i686 x86_64)

It's a bug?
