LIRC doing my nut - Raspberry Pi Forums

hi folks,

has come across definitive lirc blaster tutorial 4.x kernels? there's many different versions/gotchas/snafus out there going 2012 i'm tying myself in knots.

should easy - stock pi2 w/noobs 1.9, kernel 4.1.19. /boot/config.txt changed enable lirc-rpi overlay , add overrides hardware blaster on gpio pin 22:

code: select all

# uncomment enable lirc-rpi module dtoverlay=lirc-rpi dtparam=gpio_in_pin=23 dtparam=gpio_out_pin=22 dtparam=gpio_in_pull=1 dtparam=debug=1 

, 'lirc_dev' in /etc/modules.

via dmesg is:

code: select all

[    4.485846] systemd[1]: cannot add dependency job unit lircd.service, ignoring: unit lircd.service failed load: no such file or directory. [    5.967927] lirc_dev: ir remote control driver registered, major 245

there's no /dev/lirc0 created.

if use latest raspbian instead @ least see it's attempting use gpio 23 correctly input

code: select all

should there difference between raspbian , noobs, kernel wise? know rtl8188cus usb wifi adapter doesn't work under rasbpian under noobs....

cheers!

tied well. read 40 threads. still dead, despite having working on pi configured year ago.
