Post subject:  Hauppauge Nova-T-500 is not receiving keystrokes from remote

I just made a fresh install of LH7, everything is fine except I can't get the remote working. I've seached this forum and everywhere else the last days and I can't find a solution.
'Irw' isn't receiving any input, but when I use 'cat /dev/input/event7' I can see the remote is working.

I've set Remote as "hauppaugesilver" and Receiver as "Hauppauge" in the Service menu

from ls -la /dev/input/by-path/ I get this:
- pci-0000:01:05.2-event-ir -> ../event7
- platform-i8042-serio-0-event-kbd -> ../event0
- platform-i8042-serio-1-event-mouse -> ../event6
- platform-i8042-serio-1-mouse -> ../mouse0
- platform-pcspkr-event-spkr -> ../event1

In the /var/log/lircd I get this:
- lircd(default) ready, using /var/run/lirc/lircd
- accepted new client on /var/run/lirc/lircd
- could not get file information for /dev/lirc0
- default_init(): No such file or directory
- WARNING: Failed to initialize hardware

Can anybody help me getting my remote working ?

When I upgraded to R6 I had issues with the remote. I'm not on R7 but have a look for some of my posts - they may help you get the remote working.

I could'nt get it working via the service menu - set that to tinker so you don't loose changes on upgrades etc.

Hi tophee

I've read your postings including the one about '/usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi'
It havn't given me a solution. I think I have to get my self a new IR-receiver :?
