[PROBLEM] Configuration remote.xml

[Hawk]

Cant change to root with "su root" "su" or "su -l root"
PW is always wrong

"sudo su" worked

[CurlyMo]

That's why i suggested you use:

Code:

sudo

Changing to root is done by:

Code:

sudo su

Then the password of the xbian user.

[Hawk]

Code:

xbian@xbian:~# sudo su
[sudo] password for xbian:
root@xbian:/home/xbian# sudo tar -xvf mceusb.tar.gz -C /

Does the remote work better?

Can you post an output of while using the remote:

Code:

irw

[Hawk]

Code:

xbian@xbian:~# sudo su
[sudo] password for xbian:
root@xbian:/home/xbian# irw

It stucks after irw and nothing happens, the remote isnt working better. I jumps now between folder without that i do anything.

ESC, OK and VIDEO is still working.

Bed time - 2 am here, lets try tomorow - thx.

[CurlyMo]

So clearly my implementation of Lirc doesn't work for your remote. Restore to the old hardware.conf:

Code:

sudo wget -O - https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-alpha4/etc/lirc/hardware.conf > /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart

Can you try following my guide how to map a remote and post any issues following it.

[Hawk]

I stuck at point 3b:

Code:

root@xbian:/home/xbian# irrecord /home/xbian/remote.conf

irrecord -  application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc

Copyright (C) 1998,1999 Christoph Bartelmus(lirc@bartelmus.de)

[CurlyMo]

You didn't properly follow Step 3b.

Owk, my fault, don't stop LIRC before running irrecord.

Isnt working anyway.

[CurlyMo]

Can you try with this hardware.conf:
https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-alpha4/etc/lirc/hardware/mceusb_event0.conf

or this one:
https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-alpha4/etc/lirc/hardware/mceusb_event1.conf

[Hawk]

Code:

sudo wget -O - https://raw.github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/xbian-alpha4/etc/lirc/hardware/mceusb_event0.conf > /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

Will thiswork?

[CurlyMo]

Yes
