Installation issues / Re: iMON PAD + LCD on Thermaltake DH101
« on: April 15, 2008, 05:23:52 pm »
As far as the patch goesi have the patch, but what i dont understand is why to get the cvs which will not be used
tar xvjf lirc-0.8.3pre1.tar.bz2
when i followed the steps, first we downloaded the cvs:
Then we move into the lirc dir and update the cvs:
Then we are supposed to patch what was downloaded but instead we un-tar the ready 0.8.3pre1, which is not part of the cvs (btw, i have that downloaded), but why did we download the cvs from the beginning?
so now we have a dir inside lirc that is named: [lirc-0.8.3pre1] plus when i tried to apply the patch on the lirc dir it gave back an error, so i did the following:
and that worked, then i did:
and before all of that , added the device template in the LMCE, and let it install LIRC first and then on and did the above. after some playing around, i got stuck at this error:
I then went into the LMCE admin webpage and went into the [default] device settings and change this communicates through to USB and reloaded the router. still i kept getting this error.
When i added the template at the very beginning, LMCE added 3 items: iMON PAD, default, and LIRC Receiver.
The iMON PAD is the one i created and added to it [Configuration] [lircd.conf] [copy of the actual lircd.conf content]
The default i did not change anything in it, except later on the communicates through to USB.
The LIRC Receiver, it has [Controlled via: default] and thats it.
I beleive my problem lies within the USB and default, but i really dont know what or where to change settings anymore
As for the receiver, whether or not it is connected, i beleive it is, simply because when the machine first boots into LMCE, the remote arrow wheel works like a mouse until i hit the [mouse/keyboard] button on it, and then it dies. so i beleive that the receiver is connected alreight and is picking up signal. It's the [default] that is having trouble hooking up to the USB port.
And as for the remote, it is exactly the same like the one in the wiki, except mine is all black, but the buttons are all the same.
tar xvjf lirc-0.8.3pre1.tar.bz2
when i followed the steps, first we downloaded the cvs:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install dialog
sudo apt-get install libtool
sudo apt-get install automake
sudo apt-get install autoconf
sudo apt-get install cvs
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@lirc.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/lirc login
cvs -z8 -d:pserver:anonymous@lirc.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/lirc co lirc
Then we move into the lirc dir and update the cvs:
Code: [Select]
cd lirc
cvs update

patch -p1 < ../lirc-0.8.3pre1-imon-pad2keys.patch
./autogen.sh
