I do not believe I need to update my kernel as is stated in step 1 but, if I do, I need to<br>know how. I am running 2.6.32-22-generic. Step 2, I got taken care of thanks to the tutorial<br>for the 1600 on the mythtv wiki. Its mostly step 3 that I do not understand what he is trying<br>
to tell people to do.<br><br>Below is what I tried to do to see about getting ir-kbd-i2c to allow me to rmmod/modprobe<br>it. I am
including this as reference so everyone can, once again, keep up to speed with my<br>failings with the remote. Remember, I am running the newest v4l drivers gotten by the tutorial in the mythtv wiki on the 1600. I am running stock firmware however that came with mythbuntu 10.04. I may update at some point but, for now, I am trying to change as little as possible to see what is causing what.<br>

<br></blockquote></div><font size="3"><font size="2"><br>Lets break this down. What version of LIRC are you using? If you are running version 0.8.6 then you need to do sudo modprobe ir-kbd-i2c. When this module is loaded run the following command:<br>
<br>cat /proc/bus/input/devices | grep -A6 "i2c IR"<br></font></font> <br>With the command above you are looking for what kernel device represents the IR. On the link you sent, the above command shows:<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
S: Sysfs=/devices/virtual/input/input6<br></div><br>Once you have this information change your /etc/lirc/hardware.conf (if you are running Ubuntu). The variables of interest are:<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;">REMOTE_MODULES="ir-kbd-i2c"<br>
</div><div style="margin-left: 40px;">REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/input/event6"<br></div><br>At this point you should make sure you have the correct lircd.conf file in /etc/lirc/<br>
