| Post subject: | R4V3: Recompile Lirc... |
Hi all, After i've upgraded my hardware, i preferred to reinstall all. This time i've installed R4V3... After installed, i did: - install-NVIDIA (OK) - install-i686-l (OK) - setup mythbackend and other small things (samba, webmin, lcdproc) - recompiled mythtv with LCD and Lirc support Now, all works well.. but i was not able to use lirc. I have a Leadtek Winfast Tv2000XP deluxe with remote controller... Obviously, i tried to recompile lirc with lirc_gpio driver to support my remote... NO WAY TO DO THIS! I did: - tar xjf linux-2.4.25-chw.tar.bz2 (and type a "make menuconfig" & "make dep") - tar xjf lirc-0.7.0pre4.tar.bz2 - tar xzf lirc-modules.tar.gz - Create symbolic link in /usr/src/linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.4.25-chw - cd lirc-0.7.0pre4 - ./configure (and set my remote), save configuration & run configure - make && make install Now, when i type "modprobe lirc_gpio" or "modprobe lirc_dev", i get: /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/misc/lirc_dev.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/misc/lirc_dev.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/misc/lirc_dev.o: insmod lirc_dev failed or /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/misc/lirc_dev.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/misc/lirc_dev.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/misc/lirc_dev.o: insmod lirc_gpio failed Any idea? |

Not sure what these steps are for - I never did anything like this: Quote: - tar xjf linux-2.4.25-chw.tar.bz2 (and type a "make menuconfig" & "make dep")
- tar xzf lirc-modules.tar.gz - Create symbolic link in /usr/src/linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.4.25-chw - cd lirc-0.7.0pre4 I have the TV2000XP. It is very easy to setup. All I ever do is untar the package. Change directories to that package: ./setup.sh, make, make install and that is it. Kind of like you mentioned. (yes it is setup.sh if I recall, not configure.sh) You need to verify that you have your /etc/modutils/lirc file setup to say: alias char-major-61 lirc_gpio (then possibly run update-modules) - if it says lirc_dev - remove and type what is listed above. The Winfast card only uses gpio. KnoppMyth does not place these settings directly into the modules.conf file. After update-modules you can verify this line is in your modules.conf file. If that fails - try dmesg | grep lirc I get back the following: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 lirc_gpio (-1): card type 0x22, id 0x6606107d lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:sample_rate: 0 lirc_gpio (0): driver registered You can always from a prompt type in irw - if you get a response but MythTV is not working, then you lircrc file is not setup but the remote is. There are 3 Keys to getting the remote to work. 1. untar and run setup - picking your card, configuring, make, make install 2. Validating your modules are setup for lirc_gpio (for the winfast card) 3. Having the right lircrc file in place in your /home/mythtv/.mythtv directory. Hope that helps! Quigs |

In R4V2 it was like you say now... (i used r4v2 before today... sigh!) In R4V3, in a fresh installation, i untar lirc, ./setup.sh, set winfast2000, save configuration & run configure and before to run make i read: Quote: checking for Linux kernel sources... /tmp/LIRCMF.0a8IwR:260: arch/i386/Makefile: No such file or directory /tmp/LIRCMF.0a8IwR:543: Rules.make: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `Rules.make'. Stop. Then i run make and: Quote: make -C /usr/src/linux/ SUBDIRS=/usr/src/lirc-0.7.0pre4/drivers/lirc_dev modules \
KBUILD_VERBOSE=1 make[4]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.25-chw' Makefile:260: arch/i386/Makefile: No such file or directory Makefile:543: Rules.make: No such file or directory make[4]: *** No rule to make target `Rules.make'. Stop. make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.25-chw' make[3]: *** [lirc_dev.o] Error 2 Where am i wrong? |

OK, i resolved... I use this commands: cd /usr/src tar xjf linux-2.4.25-chw.tar.bz2 cp linux/.config linux-2.4.25-chw rm linux ln -s linux-2.4.25-chw linux cd linux-2.4.25-chw make oldconfig dep rm /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/build ln -sf /usr/src/linux-2.4.25-chw /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/build cp /usr/src/linux-2.4.25-chw/include/config/modversions.h /usr/src/linux-2.4.25-chw/include/linux/ Go in lirc directory make make install modprobe lirc_gpio Now, if i try irw and push some button, i get a result... The strange thing is that every time i push a button, lirc repeat four times the button!! I don't understand why... I hope to understand it soon!! (have you any idea?) |

Excellent. Glad you got it to work. I tried to upgrade to R4V3 but had a had trouble with the Nvidia drivers and my bttv card. I also could not get the lirc driver to work. Makes sense with what you posted. Never had problems with R4V2. |

I had to recompile Mplayer too... Anyway, i have a nvdia 440mx se 8x and the driver just work after installed... (so in R4v2...) Now i am working on "ogle", dvd player with menu... after set "hdparm -d 1 -X66" on dvd, now it works very well on my TB 1100... (now i have to set lircrc to work with it...  )
