Has anyone been able to get the usb streamzap remote working with either the lirc-reconfig.sh script that comes with R5A16, lirc-0.7.1 or possibly the cvs version of lirc... I've tried all of them, everything seems to install perfectly fine, and the kernel module starts with no problems, it just doesn't do anything =). In other words irw outputs nothing at all... no matter how hard I punch the buttons ;). here's some code that might explain a little more =).

This tells me lircd is running, and it's the correct version:
Code:
mythtv@walltop:~$ sudo lircd
lircd 0.7.2-CVS: there seems to already be a lircd process with pid 2302
lircd 0.7.2-CVS: otherwise delete stale lockfile /var/run/lircd.pid


the kernel module is in there and working:
Code:
mythtv@walltop:~$ lsmod |grep lirc
lirc_streamzap         16388  1
lirc_dev               14852  1 lirc_streamzap
usbcore               101368  6 driverloader,lirc_streamzap,usb_storage,ohci_hcd,uhci_hcd


and /etc/lirc/streamzap/PC_Remote does have the correct configuration:
Code:
mythtv@walltop:~$ cat /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
#
# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd
LIRCD_ARGS=""

#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file
#START_LIRCMD=false

#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES=true

# Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers.
DRIVER="default"
# If DEVICE is set to /dev/lirc and devfs is in use /dev/lirc/0 will be
# automatically used instead
DEVICE="/dev/lirc"
MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_streamzap"

# Default configuration files for your hardware if any
LIRCD_CONF="streamzap/PC_Remote"
LIRCMD_CONF=""

I too wanted to use my streamzap remote with the version of lirc that comes with R5A16 - I can confirm that it doesn't work. :(

However, the good news is that the latest version of lirc (0.7.2) works with my streamzap and it's not too hard to install.
You just have to be careful that you're not calling the old version as it seems to install to a different location.

I presume the lirc package will be updated in the next version of KoppMyth to resolve this.
