Remote Control, ID 0bc7:0006 - crazydog - 20th Mar, 2015 07:02 PM
Hallo!
I'am a proud owner of a Raspberry Pi 2. Problem: My USB-Remote-Control doesn't work (under xbian).
I read: http://wiki.xbian.org/doku.php/remotes
Terminal
root@xbian ~ # /etc/init.d/lirc stop
lirc stop/waiting
root@xbian ~ # mode2
mode2: could not get file information for /dev/lirc0
mode2: default_init(): No such file or directory

From an other system I have a correct lircd.conf (called pollin_x10.conf)
Where I have to store this and how can i activate it?
After reconnecting the remote control, it also appears under /proc/bus/input/devices (not directly after start up the Pi).
Terminal
root@xbian ~ # cat /proc/bus/input/devices

In Openelec the same remote control works ootb(!)
There exists a /etc/eventlircd.d/03_0bc7_0006.evmap
Do I have to use udev to aktivate the remote control? (How?)
Thank you in advance.

More than 40 readers and no answer ...
Is there no lirc expert?

Most of us use CEC. Could you post lsmod output from openelec?

For sure!

Yes, it's the complete output ... (I' am surprised). May be they prefer udev?!

Edited out since apparently the module is loaded.
Try this:
Terminal
sudo mv /etc/lirc/lircd.conf /etc/lirc/lircd.org
sudo cp pollin_x10.conf /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
sudo service lirc reload
Of course add the path to pollin_x10.conf in the above line.

Try to add dtoverlay=lirc-rpi into config.txt.
dtoverlay=lirc-rpi,gpio_out_pin=17,gpio_in_pin=18
Of course, edit chnge your io/out pins if needed.
I found this solution on Rasberryboom.com

Unfortunately that wasn't the solution.
News ...
Last week I bought my second Pi2. Than I invested 2 day so solve my problem - without success. After investigation of the openelec system I noticed that they use eventlirc (https://code.google.com/p/eventlircd/) - in my eyes a good way to use remote controls.
Unfortunately I found no xbian/Debian package ...
I decided a second time to use openelec - but I prefer the idea auf a Debian system.
By chance I discovered osmc (https://osmc.tv/) - the perfect solution for me (sorry). A Debian with eventlirc - and my remote control worked ootb!
Thank you for xbian, your engagement and your answers - but now I change over to the opposite camp.
