imon_knob no input in 9.10

[cjlindem]

Binary package hint: lirc

Support for Soundgraph Imon knob is broken in Ubuntu Karmic 9.10. Irexec and irw do not get any input from the device, though /dev/lirc0 receives the input (verified with cat /dev/lirc0). Also irrecord and mode2 both get input. Retested on fresh install of 9.04 to verify same steps are being taken to set up lirc, but they do not work in 9.10. Also tested with lircd.conf copied from working setup on 9.04, no good.

Synaptic -> install lirc. Select imon_knob. Restart lirc daemon. Launch irw, can verify input from remote on 9.04, exact same steps yield no irw input on 9.10.

Using the imon-pad driver instead does not have this problem, irw and irexec receive input as expected. The devices are similar enough this can probably be used as a workaround, but it does further support that there is something wrong with the implementation of IMON_KNOB in 9.10.

Have you still any problem with this? Otherwise, without further input, let's close this bug.

Yes please close it.
