You have the 'new' version of the receiver. You don't need lirc involved at all. And it should function out of the box. With the exception of a few keys not working at all. That's what the 0038 means.
Disable lirc -> service stop lirc
Install ir-keytable -> apt-get install ir-keytable
Run ir-keytable -> ir-keytable -t
Press some buttons on the remote, and make sure it responds.
If you want to downgrade you need to disable the devinput modules:
- Add this blacklist to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-imon.conf:
blacklist ir_core
blacklist ir_lirc_codec
blacklist ir_sony_decoder
blacklist ir_jvc_decoder
blacklist ir_rc6_decoder
blacklist ir_rc5_decoder
blacklist ir_nec_decoder
blacklist rc_imon_pad
blacklist imon
- Add this entry to /etc/modules:
lirc_imon
However, I haven't even been able to get that working.
The issue you're experiencing is directly related to remote input being included in the kernel now through devinput and no longer needing lirc to handle anything in between.

Quote:Well, if nothing else comes up I guess we have to downgrade and wait till some linux experts figure out a way...if ever. I hope there are enough experienced users with the soundgraph IR product else we will all end up like me with a certain WLAN USB stick that will never EVER work under linux because no one cares. I really like the whole concept of linux and OpenSource in general but sometimes it gets frustrating. Well, shouldn't complain really because it's all for free.
