| Kwisher | same results as the last one? no light response from the remote to the receiver? | 14:57 |
| qwebirc56516 | yep | 14:57 |
| qwebirc56516 | i dont know if this helps i have spent a lot of time googleing this week, when i do a lirc restart i get the following error | 14:57 |
| qwebirc56516 | find: `/sys/class/rc/*/': No such file or directory * Stopping remote control daemon(s): LIRC [ OK ] * Loading LIRC modules [ OK ] find: `/sys/class/rc/*/': No such file or directory * Starting remote control daemon(s) : [ OK ] | 14:58 |

| Kwisher | with the new remote, did you try it from a live boot? | 14:58 |
| qwebirc56516 | i did | 14:59 |
| qwebirc56516 | same thing | 14:59 |
| qwebirc56516 | does it mean anything that it cant find that file? | 15:00 |
| qwebirc56516 | if i do a lsusb it sees it | 15:00 |
| Kwisher | i've never had remote issues and i've been using mythtv for over 5 years | 15:01 |
| Kwisher | linux mint 5 was my first myth install and the same remote is still working today | 15:02 |
| qwebirc56516 | im going on 2 weeks with it, i really like it but the remote issue is killing me. I completely reloaded mythbuntu last night again as one of the suggestions i got googleing messed up my system and i couldnt get it to boot | 15:02 |
| Kwisher | do you have another linux system to test with? | 15:03 |
| Kwisher | or at least live boot on? | 15:04 |
| Kwisher | even a laptop would work | 15:05 |
| qwebirc56516 | i can do it on my laptop give me a couple minutes to get ity going | 15:05 |
| Kwisher | you can also try xbmc live to test with - http://xbmc.org/download/ | 15:18 |
| Kwisher | choose the XBMCbuntu option | 15:18 |
| qwebirc56516 | it does the same thing on the laptop. one flash with first press on remote then nothing | 15:21 |
| qwebirc56516 | they all work in my windows media center | 15:21 |
| qwebirc56516 | it seems like something is missing in this version of mythbuntu | 15:23 |
| Kwisher | and you did the setup also? | 15:23 |
| qwebirc56516 | yyyep i did | 15:23 |
| qwebirc56516 | does that file its missing mean anything | 15:27 |
| qwebirc56516 | any ideas? | 15:30 |
| Kwisher | you have fully updated your install? | 15:33 |
| qwebirc56516 | i did every update i could | 15:33 |
| Kwisher | does mythbuntu have synaptic installed? | 15:33 |
| Kwisher | i'm downloading mythbuntu 14.04 now to test with my spare remote | 15:40 |
| qwebirc56516 | ok i am downloading xbmc also to test with | 15:48 |
| Kwisher | how are you connected to this irc channel? | 15:50 |
| qwebirc56516 | What do you mean | 15:50 |
| Kwisher | what pc and irc client? | 15:51 |
| Kwisher | did you choose your irc nic? | 15:51 |
| qwebirc56516 | it's just a pc from microcenter they built, i choose windows media center remote in the control console | 15:52 |
| qwebirc56516 | its a older pc i have had for several years. i used to use it for a sbs server until we moved | 15:53 |
| Kwisher | my old spare remote is responding correctly on mythbuntu live boot | 15:56 |
| qwebirc56516 | i dont know why they wouldnt work on my pc and a laptop. ive tried 3 different ones? | 15:57 |
| qwebirc56516 | and they all work under windows media center | 15:58 |
| Kwisher | did you check the mythbuntu iso after you d/l? | 15:59 |
| qwebirc56516 | i burned it to a cd ok but thats all i did i didnt do any checks on it | 16:00 |
| qwebirc56516 | is there a way to reinstall lirc using defaults? | 16:00 |
| Kwisher | you should check the md5sum of the file from where you d/l | 16:00 |
| Kwisher | from a term do: sudo apt-get purge lirc* | 16:01 |
| Kwisher | my remote also works with xbmc live | 16:03 |
| qwebirc56516 | ok that seems to have removed it. md5sum seems ok | 16:03 |
| qwebirc56516 | now how do i reinstall lirc | 16:04 |
| Kwisher | now do: sudo apt-get purge mythbuntu-lirc-generator* | 16:04 |
| Kwisher | after that you need to do: sudo apt-get install lirc mythbuntu-lirc-generator | 16:06 |
| Kwisher | then do: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 16:07 |
| qwebirc56516 | ok it running | 16:09 |
| qwebirc56516 | i mean downloading remote haevnt tried yet | 16:10 |
| qwebirc56516 | ok it finished now what do i reboot? | 16:10 |
| Kwisher | did the last command do any updates/upgrades? | 16:15 |
| qwebirc56516 | it did some | 16:16 |
| qwebirc56516 | 259mb download it said | 16:16 |
| Kwisher | go ahead and reboot | 16:16 |
| qwebirc56516 | i restarted and still have no remote | 16:18 |
| qwebirc56516 | do you get a file error if you restart lirc? | 16:18 |
| qwebirc56516 | i still do saying its missing a file | 16:18 |
| qwebirc56516 | maybe it doesnt mean anything | 16:19 |
| Kwisher | how are you restarting lirc? | 16:21 |
| qwebirc56516 | sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart | 16:22 |
| Kwisher | i get no errors on mine | 16:24 |
| Kwisher | in the control center/ir setup, what do you have for the settings? | 16:26 |
| Kwisher | would you mind installing teamviewer on your myth system so i can remote in? | 16:28 |
| qwebirc56516 | not at all juyst tell me what i need to do to install it | 16:28 |
| Kwisher | is your install 32 or 64 bit? | 16:29 |
| qwebirc56516 | 64bit | 16:29 |
| Kwisher | google for teamviewer and download the ubuntu 32/64 bit multiarch file | 16:31 |
| Kwisher | did you try the xbmc live yet? | 16:31 |
| qwebirc56516 | its installing almost done. i am making a dvd with xbmc | 16:36 |
| Kwisher | you need to use usb sticks for live testing | 16:36 |
| Kwisher | or rewritable optical discs | 16:37 |
| qwebirc56516 | teamviewer id 515 761 234 | 16:37 |
| qwebirc56516 | password 1988 | 16:37 |
| Kwisher | i'm at a loss | 16:40 |
| Kwisher | password please | 16:44 |
| qwebirc56516 | ok i put it in | 16:45 |
| Kwisher | what did you select before here in term? | 16:56 |
| qwebirc56516 | windows media center | 16:56 |
| Kwisher | on my system there is a rc0 folder with other files/folders | 17:12 |
| Kwisher | something is hosed on your system | 17:12 |
| Kwisher | i cannot write to it either, even as root, just as on yours | 17:13 |
| qwebirc56516 | does service have to be stopped | 17:13 |
| qwebirc56516 | so much for that idea | 17:14 |
| Kwisher | must be some sort of system area ??? | 17:15 |
| qwebirc56516 | should i reload? | 17:15 |
| Kwisher | on mine there is: device input4 lirc0 power protocols subsystem uevent | 17:15 |
| Kwisher | yours does not exist for some reason | 17:16 |
| qwebirc56516 | is it some kind of secirty issue on the folder? is there a way (for lack of a better term to force it to take ownership? | 17:18 |
| Kwisher | same as mine root | 17:18 |
| Kwisher | when you installed, did you do a custom partition or use the default? | 17:29 |
| qwebirc56516 | i used the default and chose to delete previous install and reninstall new | 17:29 |
| Kwisher | my only suggestion would be to install xubuntu 14.04 and then add mythtv after the install | 17:31 |
| qwebirc56516 | i have another hard drive i can install in the computer and reload it, i'm getting really good at the reloads | 17:31 |
| Kwisher | but make sure to delete all partitions and start on a bare drive | 17:31 |
| qwebirc56516 | i can probably do that i think i know how to install mythtv on it after umbuntu | 17:31 |
| Kwisher | you would just need to install mythbuntu-control-centre and go through the setup | 17:32 |
| qwebirc56516 | thank you so much for the help at least it seems to be getting somewhere and i'm not going crazy | 17:32 |
| Kwisher | can you try the xbmc live on your laptop first to check the remote hardware? | 17:33 |
| Kwisher | unplug the receiver from the myth box | 17:33 |
| qwebirc56516 | i unplugged it | 17:34 |
| Kwisher | plug it back in | 17:34 |
| qwebirc56516 | done | 17:35 |
| Kwisher | ok try xbmc live to check the remote hardware | 17:35 |
| Kwisher | should work right away without any configuration | 17:36 |
| qwebirc56516 | ok i will do so i will have to kick you off the box you are on i am using laptop for the chat room | 17:36 |
| Kwisher | well, i'm stumped | 17:40 |
| Kwisher | unless your hardware is not actually supported?? | 17:41 |
| qwebirc56516 | i am going to reload it after i test with xbmc | 17:41 |
| Kwisher | test with xbmc | 17:41 |
| Kwisher | test with xbmc on both pc's | 17:42 |
| qwebirc56516 | couple question i will have when i tried umbuntu and then mythtv the first time everytime i restarted it asked for a passowrd before going into it | 17:42 |
| Kwisher | need to verify the hardware actually works with linux | 17:42 |
| qwebirc56516 | like i had to login | 17:42 |
| qwebirc56516 | will do i will test and let you know | 17:42 |
| Kwisher | yes, that is normal | 17:43 |
| Kwisher | when i start the myth-backend setup i have to enter password | 17:43 |
| Kwisher | anything you do on linux that requires system changes should require the admin password | 17:44 |
| Kwisher | first thing is to make sure the remote hardware works | 17:45 |
