Hey Jarod,

Are these test kernels now available?

I'm having problems with the IR/VFD on my 15c2:0036 Device in my recently
upgraded Mythdora 10.21 system.

I can see the /dev/lirc0 & /dev/lirc1 devices and cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
confirms that lirc_imon is loaded on that device but I cannot get the VFD
working

T:  Bus=05 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=02 Dev#=  3 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=15c2 ProdID=0036 Rev= 0.01
C:* #Ifs= 2 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA
I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID  ) Sub=00 Prot=02 Driver=lirc_imon
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=10ms
I:* If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=03(HID  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=lirc_imon
E:  Ad=82(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=10ms


LCDd fails with the following errors

LCDd -f -r 5 -s 0

driver_load(name="imon", filename="/usr/lib64/lcdproc/imon.so")
imon: using Device /dev/lcd0
imon: ERROR opening /dev/lcd0 (No such file or directory).
imon: Did you load the iMON VFD kernel module?
imon: More info in lcdproc/docs/README.imon
Driver [imon] init failed, return code < 0
Module /usr/lib64/lcdproc/imon.so could not be loaded
Could not load driver imon
There is no output driver
Critical error while initializing, abort.

I'm also having issues with a Dvico remote but I don't believe that's
related as lircd appears to be picking up the button presses just mythtv is
not actioning them.

Cheers,

Anthony
