I'd like to share what I did to configure X10 remote model OR32E in XBIAN 1.0a5, in case it helps anyone or just for improving xbian next versions.

Create /etc/modprobe.d with the following blacklisted modules:

Code:

blacklist rc_medion_x10_or2x 

blacklist ati_remote

blacklist rc_core

Create /etc/lirc/hardware/custom.conf with the following content:

Code:

# /etc/lirc/hardware/custom.conf

#

# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd

#LIRCD_ARGS=""

#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file

#START_LIRCMD=false

#Don't start irexec, even if a good config file seems to exist.

#START_IREXEC=false

#Try to load appropriate kernel modules

#LOAD_MODULES=false

# Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers.

DRIVER="atilibusb"

# usually /dev/lirc0 is the correct setting for systems using udev

DEVICE="/dev/lirc"

#MODULES=""

# Default configuration files for your hardware if any

#LIRCD_CONF=""

#LIRCMD_CONF=""

Change /etc/lirc/lircd.conf to:

Code:

Add the following line inside the file /home/xbian/.xbmc/userdata/advancedsettings.xml:

Code:

<remotedelay>17</remotedelay>

Can you try if "suppress_repeat" in the lircd.conf acts as a replacement for "<remotedelay>17</remotedelay>"?

Yes, it works fine also removing the <remotedelay>17</remotedelay> from the advancedsettings.xml and adding a "suppress_repeat 4" in the lircd.conf file.

Thanks

Then i don't have to tinker with the advancedsettings.xml. Great!

Can you share a lsusb, dmesg and cat /proc/bus/input/devices (on pastebin) so i can add the remote to our auto-detect script.

Here's the info in pastebin: http://pastebin.com/0VnhPxk1

You'll see info about a "Bus 001 Device 007: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver" that has nothing to do with the X10 receiver (it's the receiver of a wireless keyboard).

I've found an image of the X10 OR32E remote in Amazon:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41g8xm4PDjL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

Part of my configuration is based on a post about an X10 OR22V configuration for lirc you can find in:
http://www.mythtvtalk.com/how-configure-x10-wti-rf-receiver-8407/

It seems that both remotes (OR32E and OR22V) are pretty similar.

Can you try the files i put on git and see if they work?

No problem. Ley me know URL of the git and the files I must try. Did you include an alternative to the blacklisting of modules (ie: rmmod)?

Yes, i do a:

Code:

modprobe -r

The files you need are:
https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-beta1/etc/lirc/hardware.conf
https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-beta1/etc/lirc/lircd.conf

https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-beta1/usr/local/share/xbmc/system/Lircmap.xml

Ok. I'll try it asap and ley you know how it goes. Thank you!

Hello,

it works OK. Good job!

I've added some keys of the remote that were missing in x10-or32e.conf and changed some mappings for my remote in Lircmap.xml to make it more usable.

New x10-or32e.conf is:

Kind regards

Changed. Thanks, let's hope the X10 problems are gone.

Just one thing I have noted. Sometimes after rebooting lirc doesn't start giving a message that it could initialize the USB receiver.

I remember that message because it's the same that I saw when trying to run lirc with atilibusb without removing the 3 kernel modules (ati_remote...). So I figure that lirc was starting before the modules where completely removed with the "modprobe -r". To solve it I've inserted a "sleep 2" after the three "modprobe -r" in hardware.conf, to give some time for the modules to unload completely.

I've rebooted three more times and it seems ok now.

I hope you understand me, my english is not native.

Regards
