This worked before the driver moved into the kernel. The mouse keys on the pad plus [esc] work. Channel works. Numbers, power, play, record do not work with irw. Note that when I type or use a mouse key, instead of being displayed by irw, X responds. I don't recall this happening before. I don't think I need the mouse/X emulation. I don't think I had that before.

Also, in dmesg, when I use the pad (mouse or keyboard arrow depending on mode) I see this: [ 3215.974444] imon 3-5:1.0: imon_incoming_packet: unknown keypress, code 0x68fa81b7 [ 3216.078446] imon 3-5:1.0: imon_incoming_packet: unknown keypress, code 0x697299b7 [ 3217.878485] imon 3-5:1.0: imon_incoming_packet: unknown keypress, code 0x6afa81b7 [ 3217.950486] imon 3-5:1.0: imon_incoming_packet: unknown keypress, code 0x6b42b9b7 [ 3218.022484] imon 3-5:1.0: imon_incoming_packet: unknown keypress, code 0x6b42f9b7 [ 3218.094486] imon 3-5:1.0: imon_incoming_packet: unknown keypress, code 0x6b4299b7 This is despite the fact that it appears to work. When it doesn't work, there is nothing added to dmesg.
Confirming that lirc-0.9.0 or kernel-3.0 does not work with my "Antec Fusion Remote" case which comes bundled with a Veris RM200 remote control, which is essentially the same as the iMon Pad, just rebranded. Most of the RC keys do not work, and irw does not work to get the correct key codes, to create a config from scratch: I get no reaction from irw for nearly all keys, just the up/down/left/right keys trigger an output like "[[A". I tried every combination of kernel-2.6.38-gentoo-r6/3.0.6 and lirc-0.8.7/0.9.0. With lirc-0.9.0, I tried LIRC_DEVICES="imon", "imon_lcd", "imon imon_lcd" and "" in make.conf. The only working combination is kernel-2.6.38 and lirc-0.8.7. I did not test kernel-2.6.39. lircd.conf is a link to /usr/share/lirc/remotes/imon/lircd.conf.imon-antec-veris. emerge --info (of the working setup): Portage 2.1.10.11 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.12.2-r0, 2.6.38-gentoo-r6-aoede-20110605-02 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.38-gentoo-r6-aoede-20110605-02-x86_64-AMD_Athlon-tm-_II_X4_630_Processor-with-gentoo-2.0.3 Timestamp of tree: Sat, 05 Nov 2011 00:45:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.1_p9 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11-r3 dev-lang/python: 2.7.2-r3, 3.1.4-r3 dev-util/cmake: 2.8.4-r1 dev-util/pkgconfig: 0.26 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.3 sys-apps/openrc: 0.8.3-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.68 sys-devel/automake: 1.8.5-r4, 1.9.6-r3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.21.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.5.3-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.4-r1 sys-devel/make: 3.82-r1 sys-kernel/linux-headers: 2.6.39 (virtual/os-headers) sys-libs/glibc: 2.12.2 Repositories: gentoo x-portage ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -@EULA @EULA" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/gnupg/qualified.txt" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--keep-going --with-bdeps y -j4 --load-average=4" FEATURES="assume-digests binpkg-logs distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles fixpackages news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox usersync webrsync-gpg" FFLAGS="" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://de-mirror.org/distro/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mneisen.org/ http://gentoo.supp.name/ http://gentoo.wheel.sk/ http://gentoo.tiscali.nl/ http://gentoo.mirror.pw.edu.pl/ http://gentoo.telcom.net.ua/ http://gentoo.virginmedia.com/ http://gentoo.prz.rzeszow.pl http://gentoo.moskalevskyi.name/" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="de" MAKEOPTS="-j9 -l4" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://io/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowext X a52 aac acl acpi alsa amd64 berkdb branding bzip2 cairo cdda cdr cli consolekit cracklib crypt css cxx dbus dmx dri dts dvd dvdr emboss encode exif fam firefox flac fortran gdbm gdu gif gpm iconv icu ipv6 java jpeg jpeg2k lcms ldap lirc mad matroska mikmod mmx mng modules mp3 mp4 mpeg mudflap multilib ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl openmp pam pango pcre pdf png policykit ppds pppd qt3support readline schroedinger sdl session speex spell sse sse2 sse4a ssl startup-notification svg sysfs tcpd tiff truetype udev unicode usb vorbis wifi x264 xcb xgetdefault xml xorg xulrunner xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache cgi cgid dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" CALLIGRA_FEATURES="kexi words flow plan stage tables krita karbon braindump" CAMERAS="ptp2" COLLECTD_PLUGINS="df interface irq load memory rrdtool swap syslog" ELIBC="glibc" GPSD_PROTOCOLS="ashtech aivdm earthmate evermore fv18 garmin garmintxt gpsclock itrax mtk3301 nmea ntrip navcom oceanserver oldstyle oncore rtcm104v2 rtcm104v3 sirf superstar2 timing tsip tripmate tnt ubx" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="imonlcd" LINGUAS="de" LIRC_DEVICES="imon imon_lcd" PHP_TARGETS="php5-3" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="fglrx vesa" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_BUNZIP2_COMMAND, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
As of app-misc/lirc-0.9.4, lirc no longer distributes kernel drivers making this issue obsolete. Please use the latest lirc and build kernel drivers using linux kernel configuration - lirc only includes the userspace tools now. If you have a problem with the linux kernel driver, please open a bug against the kernel, not lirc.
