Fedora12Beta - No remote - marco2bb2 - 2009-10-28
Hello, I am trying fedora12 beta with xbmc.
Quite everything ok, except for remote (mceusb) which no longer works.
I use lirc, and with Fedora11 all worked out of the box.
Note that remote works as usual in all other applications like mplayer or myth, so I do not think is totally OS related.
I tried same xbmc build I worked on F11, I tried a new build, I tried hansvon rpm (http://hansvon.homelinux.org/fedora/11 and 12) which worked on 11. No remote
Can someone point me to the correct direction to find out what happened?
Thank you

Solved. The problem was in the change of name in lirc socket. In fedora <= 11 it was /dev/lircd , in Fedora 12 it became /var/run/lirc/lircd so XBMC was not able to communicate with it.
As a simple workaround, I made a ln -s /var/run/lirc/lircd /dev/lircd and all is ok now.
