Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
i want to download it from windows but i don know how, there isnt any download button. do i need to save that in notepad, and in what format, or what.
and how to copy it to N900:\qtirreco\Devices when there is not qtirreco folder when i connect my n900 with usb cable. do i need to create that folder or what?
and when do i need to type this command ( cd /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices ) in xterminal.

Its a bit dangerous to download it in windows because linux and windows has a different way to end lines (Technical: CR vs CR+LF)
The folder alredy exists but is hidden from windows...

I think the best you can do would be to open xterminal and follow the instructions, it is very easy (Just type the commands in xterminal with the keyboard...) and there will be errormessages to tell you if you spell something wrong... so "just do it" ;)

hmm i'm sure it won't convert the file by just saving it... just don't open this file.

right click the remote file and save as from here:
http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/ei/
It's TV90 file.

you should see your n900 internal mmc, if not it's locked by S/W running on phone... reboot n900 will fix it.
Then copy/paste your remote file into (N900 32g emmc)\qtirreco\Devices

It not hidden, it's not .qtirreco
At least it wasn't on mine and it worked.

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
i rebooted but it is the same again no qtirreco folder.
i wonder if i installed the right version of irreco
i intalled it like this: appmenager/multimedia/ and then irreco (for n900)
my windows can see all hidden files.
or is there an x terminal command to copy it there?

Re: QtIrreco for N900
You need QtIrreco for N900
Irreco is only the command line.

In the app installer, look under all and type qtirreco
it'll come up, unless it's under dev or test and you haven't installed (google meamo repository)

First thing to check is if lirc is running by typing ps in terminal.You should see this line:

/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --listen=8765
...
Then under /etc/lircd.conf you should have proper device path included.
...

My Qtirecco doesn't work after reflashing my n900..

If I type ps I don't get /usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --listen=8765
!!
And my /etc/lircd.conf doesn't contain any commands..

What's wrong??

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
try uninstalling Qtirecco,
check if /etc/lircd.conf is there, if so rename it to /etc/lircd.conf.old
reinstall Qtirecco

if that didn't work rename /etc/lircd.conf.old back to original name and try

make sure Qtirecco is running while doing this in the terminal:
ps -ef | grep lircd
the | is pipe, shift \ on my keyboard, on n900 hit the blue up arrow and then Sym Ctrl key, select |

You should then see
/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --listen=8765

if not, as root, try running:
/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --listen=8765
