A good article. I followed it through and got my ATI Remote Wonder to work with MythTV on a OpenSuse 10.2 system. However the problem arose on rebooting. My machine took much longer to reboot and the remote no longer worked. After much trial and error, I tracked this down to the lines the article suggested that should be inserted in the /etc/modprobe.conf file

i.e.

alias char-major-61 lirc_atiusb

alias lirc_dev lirc_atiusb

After removing these lines the remote worked OK.

Also if I enabled lirc in Yast, again the remote did not work for some reason. I disabled lirc in Yast and started it from the command line.

cleanup

There are two nearly duplicate lircrc config files, and other information that should be consolidated.

I reordered the headings to better reflect the content.Lauret 14:09, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
