Lirc doesn't work after reboot
Software
XBian version: 1.0 Beta 2

Problem description:

Hello everyone,

First, i'm french, sorry for my bad english.

It's been two weeks since I purchased an infrared receiver that I connected to my raspberry with a tutorial.

I configure my remote with "irrecord" function and test it with the "irw" function, everything works, the directional buttons configured by default normally respond, but after a reboot no response from xbmc, I have to re-run the command "sudo modprobe lirc_rpi" to be able to control xbmc. After much research I have absolutely no idea what to do.

Oh, and I can't seem to use the Lircmap.xml file, but we'll see later.

Thank you in advance for your help.


How to reproduce:

RE: Lirc doesn't work after reboot
Add "lirc_rpi" to your /etc/modules. You'd need "sudo nano /etc/modules" to modify it.

With this change the module should auto-load just after boot.

RE: Lirc doesn't work after reboot
Thank you for your answer, that was it, but it's too late, I found the answer on another forum yesterday. Wink

For the mapping, the problem came from differents sources:

First, I realized that xbian copy the files "hardware.conf" to "hardware.conf.xbian" and "lircd.conf" to "lircd.conf.xbian." It was necessary to simply replace the contents of these copies, by the original (your configuration of your remote).

Secondly, the "Lircmap.xml" file should not be placed in /home/xbian/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/Lircmap.xml
but in /home/xbian/.xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml

And now everything works.
