Title: lirc for theKompany rom 1.5
Post by: infinite on November 19, 2004, 08:46:27 pm
Would anyone know where I can find lirc for the 'theKompany' rom, version 1.5? I think its running kernel 2.4.18-something-something, from memory. I found lirc compiled for a slightly different kernel, but it seems to fail to work.

I'm trying to use 'remote' to run a friends DVD player, as their remote has been lost, and some DVD's can no longer play, not to mention any special features etc.

Thank you,
Infinite

For your information, Lirc need to have a file containing the remote configuration, it can't learn without the remote. So, if you did not record it before or if it is not available on lirc.org, a working lirc will be useless...

I found the make, but not the model on the lirc site, it said it covered various appliances, by teac, such as cd player, tv, dvd etc.  So hopefully it will work

(a thread with all the files and a tutorial by myself. However, it is in French .
I use Lirc and the GUI remote everyday with my Cacko 1.21 and it works very well. Good luck !
