[CurlyMo]

[1of16]

Terminal

xbian@xbian ~ $ sudo modprobe uinput rc_core
ERROR: could not insert 'uinput': Invalid argument

[CurlyMo]

[CurlyMo]

I don't know how to build that module. So a little cooperation in searching ...

Also try this thread:

You have to blacklist some modules that make your X10 receiver be recognized as a keyboard and as a mouse. Create /etc/modprobe.d/lircd.conf with the following blacklisted modules:

Code:

blacklist rc_medion_x10_or2x
blacklist ati_remote
blacklist rc_core

After rebooting check with lsmod that those modules aren't loaded.

Full details on what I did to make it work (my model is OR32E,don't know if yours is the same) are in:
http://forum.xbian.org/thread-565.html

I have exactly the same problem! Any news?
I tried the way of casadoi, but it didn't work... It's not the or32e-model.

The atilibusb module never gets loaded and I always just have /dev/lircd and not /dev/lirc0

[CurlyMo]

Did you try this:
http://forum.xbian.org/thread-565-post-7238.html#pid7238

[Lupurus]

This doesn't work either

root@xbian:/home/xbian# ls /dev/lirc*
/dev/lircd

... and ...

root@xbian:/home/xbian# lsmod | grep ati
root@xbian:/home/xbian#

Now absolutely no key is working!

But: If I'm trying with "irw", all the commands are working. What am I doing wrong?

By the way, this is in the /var/log/lircd:

Jan 1 01:00:33 xbian lircd: lircd(atilibusb) ready, using /var/run/lirc/lircd
