Comment 14 for bug 153184

Hi

This is what you have to do in order to get the pad working in Hardy:

Install lirc sources and dkms

Code:

sudo apt-get install dkms lirc-modules-source

Copy the patch file (lirc-0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7-pad2keys.patch) to /usr/src

Code:

cp (path)/lirc-0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7-pad2keys.patch /usr/src/.

Patch the source

Code:

cd /usr/src/lirc-0.8.3~pre1
sudo patch -p1 < ../lirc-0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7-pad2keys.patch

Build and install lirc using dkms

Code:

sudo dkms remove -m lirc -v 0.8.3~pre1 --all
sudo dkms add -m lirc -v 0.8.3~pre1
sudo dkms build -m lirc -v 0.8.3~pre1
sudo dkms install -m lirc -v 0.8.3~pre1

Activate patch

Code:

sudo pico /etc/modprobe.d/options

Add the following line to the end of this file

Quote:
options lirc_imon pad2keys_active=1
Then a reboot, and you ready to navigate MythTV using the pad.

Have fun
