Please keyword inputlircd. Once keyworded it will be a dependency of lirc (controlled via LIRC_DEVICES="inputlirc"). You need no special hardware for this. Testcase: 1. emerge inputlircd and lirc 2. start inputlircd -f -m 1 /dev/input/event* 3. start irw on another shell now every keypress should create one line of output of irw
added ~ppc64
Thanks for providing such a clear testcase Matthias! keyworded ~ppc
emerges fine on amd64, passes collision-test and multilib-strict, works and i finally got my hauppauge wintv remote working :) Portage 2.1-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.1/desktop, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r3, 2.6.17-gentoo-r7 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.17-gentoo-r7 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.4 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/X11/xkb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/java-config/vms/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache collision-test distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict test" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo ftp://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo-mirror/ ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo ftp://ftp.wh2.tu-dresden.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.gentoo.mesh-solutions.com/gentoo/ ftp://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ " LANG="en_US.ISO8859-1" LC_ALL="en_US.ISO8859-1" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS="--exclude-from=/etc/portage/rsync_excludes" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/overlay" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X a52 aac acpi alsa amr asf avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 cairo cdda cddb cdinstall cdparanoia cdr cli crypt cups dbus dlloader dri dvd dvdr dvdread emboss encode expat fam firefox fortran gdbm gif glut gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal imagemagick isdnlog jpeg lcms ldap libg++ lirc mad mikmod mng mp3 mpeg musicbrainz ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl pam pcre pdflib php png ppds pppd quicktime readline reflection sdl session socks5 spl ssl svg tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode v4l v4l2 vorbis x264 xine xinerama xml xorg xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse kernel_linux lirc_devices_inputlirc userland_GNU video_cards_fglrx video_cards_radeon" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS
