Post subject: | RS232 Serial IR blaster "hardware does not support sen |
Hi All, I bought a RS232 Serial IR blaster from IRBlaster.info a while ago and I am now just starting to configure it with knoppmyth R5E50. I also have a Hauppage PVR250 Silver remote working with lirc at this time. I tried running a script called send_power_new and then also calling irsend on the cmd line and both times I get the following error "hardware does not not support sending" I've been using my digital camera's lcd to check my other remotes so I have a good test device once I can get past this problem. Do you all have any ideas? I send similar email to Mike from IRBlaster.info as well. Thanks, John |

Since I upgraded to R5E50 awhile ago I forgot to back check that. I just added the group change and rebooted. That didn't fix it. Next I whacked my PS/2 mouse entry. Checking now... Well all that did was lose my the mouse that's built into my keyboard...now surprise there is suppose. ps aux | grep lirc root 2650 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S 15:44 0:00 [lirc_dev] root 2654 0.0 0.0 2716 592 ? Ss 15:44 0:00 /usr/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 ll /dev/lirc* crw-rw---- 1 root video 61, 0 Apr 8 15:44 /dev/lirc0 crw-rw---- 1 root video 61, 1 Apr 8 15:44 /dev/lirc1 srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Apr 8 15:44 /dev/lircd my /etc/irblaster/hardware.conf reads IRBLASTER_SERIAL_PORT=COM1 /etc/lirc/hardware.conf #arguments which will be used when launching lircd LIRCD_ARGS="" #Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file START_LIRCMD=false #Try to load appropriate kernel modules LOAD_MODULES=true # Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers. DRIVER="default" # If DEVICE is set to /dev/lirc and devfs is in use /dev/lirc/0 will be # automatically used instead DEVICE="/dev/lirc0" MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_i2c" I'm abit confused as to the purpose of the /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc (remote commands). I thought those were up in the main /etc/lirc/lircd.conf Happy Easter by the way. John |
