| 1 | Hello, |
|---|
| 2 | |
|---|
| 3 | I made a IRman input driver for lcdproc-0.4 wich is now include in |
|---|
| 4 | "lcdproc-0.4-pre6". This input driver require "libirman-0.4.1b" the |
|---|
| 5 | library with function support for IRman. |
|---|
| 6 | |
|---|
| 7 | I want to help you use this new driver (if anybody other than me use |
|---|
| 8 | it... please tell me!!!). |
|---|
| 9 | |
|---|
| 10 | In order to help you compile your own version of LCDd with support for |
|---|
| 11 | IRman, I recorded every step I took in order to compile my own copy |
|---|
| 12 | based on two file downloaded directly from the internet. |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | The first file is " lcdproc-0.4-pre6.tar.gz " the current version of |
|---|
| 15 | lcdproc. You can download this file from |
|---|
| 16 | "http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net/download.php3" The second file is |
|---|
| 17 | "libirman-0.4.1b.tar.gz" the current version of libirman. You can |
|---|
| 18 | download this file from http://www.evation.com/libirman/ DO NOT USE |
|---|
| 19 | THE COPY OF LIBIRMAN FROM LCDPROC HOME PAGE... I don't know what is |
|---|
| 20 | wrong with that one but I can't decompress it??? |
|---|
| 21 | |
|---|
| 22 | How to compile lcdproc for use with support for IRman: |
|---|
| 23 | |
|---|
| 24 | -Untar lcdproc and libirman: |
|---|
| 25 | tar -xzvf lcdproc-0.4-pre6.tgz |
|---|
| 26 | tar -xzvf libirman$$$ |
|---|
| 27 | -Go, configure and compile libirman: |
|---|
| 28 | cd libirman-0.4.1b/ |
|---|
| 29 | ./configure |
|---|
| 30 | make |
|---|
| 31 | cd .. |
|---|
| 32 | -Go in lcdproc directory: |
|---|
| 33 | cd lcdproc-0.4-pre6 |
|---|
| 34 | -Here is the modification you need to include IRman driver in lcdproc: |
|---|
| 35 | edit Makefile.config |
|---|
| 36 | # Irman input... handy! |
|---|
| 37 | DRIVERS += -DIRMANIN_DRV |
|---|
| 38 | DOBJ += irmanin.o ../../../libirman-0.4.1b/libirman.a |
|---|
| 39 | IRMAN=1 |
|---|
| 40 | -Compile lcdproc |
|---|
| 41 | make |
|---|
| 42 | -Make sure you have a network interface up and working: |
|---|
| 43 | ifup lo |
|---|
| 44 | -Go and install your IRman configuration file: |
|---|
| 45 | cd server |
|---|
| 46 | cd drivers |
|---|
| 47 | cp DOTirmanrc ~/.irmanrc |
|---|
| 48 | -Modify if needed (if you use another remote control) the .irmanrc file. |
|---|
| 49 | -Run LCDd with two driver, irmanin and an output driver: |
|---|
| 50 | ./LCDd -d irmanin "-d /dev/ttyS0" -d curses |
|---|
| 51 | -Try to access the menu by pressing the remote control. |
|---|
| 52 | |
|---|
| 53 | Now if it does not work: |
|---|
| 54 | · Try your IRMAN on ttyS0 alone (with other software). |
|---|
| 55 | · Try LCDd without the IrmanIN driver. |
|---|
| 56 | · ... |
|---|

|---|
| 60 | PS: If you really have successfuly made LCDd working without IRman AND |
|---|
| 61 | You have successfuly made IRman device working AND you don't succeed |
|---|
| 62 | to make it work together ussing my driver... then maybe I can help and |
|---|
| 63 | give you some support (as time permit and if it does not eat up too |
|---|
| 64 | much bandwidth). |
