Full Version: LIRC Issues - Nothing from irw but mode2 shows signals

Hello all,

I am using an CommandIR III mini unit to receive IR on a full desktop install of Ubuntu 10.10. I know the receiver works because when I use mode2 and press buttons I see a bunch of signals passing through on my terminal.

But irw does not work. I am using a universal remote programmed to be the original XBOX 1 remote. I know my remote works because it works with my original, softmodded XBOX 1 and the DVD playback kit.

Here is my output from ps aux|grep lircd (incase this helps):

Code:
root       975  0.0  0.0   4856   608 ?        Ss   08:38   0:00 /usr/sbin/lircd --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd --driver=commandir --device=/dev/lirc0
root      2147  0.3  0.0      0     0 ?        Z    09:41   2:52 [lircd] <defunct>
xbmc      3952  0.0  0.0   5164   768 pts/1    S+   22:09   0:00 grep --color=auto lircd
xbmc@htpc:/etc/lirc$

And here is the output from lsmod | grep lirc (incase this helps):

Code:
ir_lirc_codec           3092  0
ir_core                14654  7 ir_lirc_codec,ir_sony_decoder,ir_jvc_decoder,ir_rc6_decoder,ir_rc5_decoder,ir_nec_decoder,mceusb
lirc_dev                9393  1 ir_lirc_codec
xbmc@htpc:/etc/lirc$

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
