Intel NUC - Haswell (4th Generation CPU)
I did try it with windows 7 and it works very well. The CIR is really well done, very sensitive and was next to a bright window when I tried it. Looking forward to having it work with a linux os...I am sure it will eventually.

Thanks for trying it, at least it works well Big Grin. Would rather have a small issue to overcome in linux and really good built in CIR than the other way around Smile

I have a question on the ram for this nuc. It has 2 SODIMM slots, Is it possible to install 1 8 gb card in one slot and it work correctly. I would want to do this in order to increase it to 16gb in the future without much expense.

Pretty sure you can, you just wont get the dual-channel increase. You probably wouldnt notice it though...

Doesn't work in XBMCbuntu either, probably the same port not valid thing. I think it's a driver issue

What dual gb would you recommend for mainly xbmc streaming and down loading / playback of movies to and from hdd. Some internet surfing.

The tee and modprobe seem to go without error but I still do not see lirc0 show up in dev. irw doesnt see anything and mode2 error out.

Are you using OE? I ask because you mention sudo in your commands but should not need that.
I have OE dual boot planned but I'm using 64bit Ubuntu 13.10 for now.

Try unloading the driver first with
Code:
modprobe -r nuvoton-cir

I'll verify this with OE once I get my dual boot sorted out. Then I need to figure out where to get a suitable remote..

Sorry to go off topic, but can I get a 'it's not fair, I wanna play' from everyone else in the UK where we don't even have a hint of proper delivery date yet?

Ta.

Carry on.

I've got a single 2GB SODIMM in mine, and it works great.

Code:
$ echo "auto" | sudo tee /sys/bus/acpi/devices/NTN0530\:00/physical_node/resources
$ cat /sys/bus/acpi/devices/NTN0530\:00/physical_node/resources

And load the driver:
Code:
$ sudo modprobe nuvoton-cir debug=1

Testing with
Code:
$ sudo mode2 -d /dev/lirc0
reports events when I point a random remote at it and push buttons. Smile

I booted Ubuntu 13.10 off a USB drive and pulled up a terminal, and while I'm not great with linux, I can type in commands, and I could do each step until the "mode2" line. At that point I did 'ls /dev' and noticed there was no "lirc". Then I tried "mode2", and was told that command didn't exist, but I could apt-get lirc to add it. When I did this: "sudo apt-get install lirc", I got:"Package lirc is not available, but is referred to by another package."

I'm out for the rest of the day, but I'm happy to do anything I can to help the devs with this one.

I'm not sure how things should be configured after this - it looks like there is an input device and a lirc device that could be used. Now I just need to get an MCE remote..

Also, I wonder what the right way is to fix this. Is the ACPI data incorrect, or is the driver supposed to enable the device before validating the resources?

I have a Celeron with Intel HD Graphics in my micro HDPC and it plays all my movies in 1080p perfectly with great audio through my AVR.

Using these commands, the IRW now picks up the remote and it works fine! The only problem is that I guess this will need to be run every single boot? I restarted my NUC and it went back to not working.

This is what I got. Anything that os 1.35v should work though:

The kernel has a db of devices (vid:pid) that each driver maps to. Sometimes new devices come along that can still use the driver but their vid:pid aren't in the database. Thr kernel won't automatically load the driver but it can still be loaded manually. This may be possible yo fix in modeprobe.conf.
