dvico fusion hdtv dual digi 4 rev2 ir remote no data in dev

atkinsonr · 2009-04-19 03:43:53

Hello.
I have a Dvico FusionHDTV dual digital 4 (rev 2, uses dib7000p, dibx000_common and dib0070 kernel modules) the tuners work great but I can't get any data from the inbuilt IR receiver.

I believe I have everything set up correctly. However when I press buttons on the remote I can't see anything by 'cat'ing any of the devices.

e.g.

sudo cat /dev/input/irremote | hexdump

**press buttons and nothing happens**

I've included anything that I think is relevant below. I've exhausted my troubleshooting skills when it comes to this, so please any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!

Many thanks

Firstly "lsmod | grep lirc" produces nothing - there are no lirc drivers loaded as I am using "devinput"

Secondly I had to tell 'hal' not to grab the devices otherwise it recognized them as keyboards:

cat /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi

        <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
     </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>
