Quick howto on installing 330HT remote in Ubuntu 10.10
Open an terminal
First we’ll need lirc:
sudo apt-get install lirc
Select “None” for both “remote control configuration” and “IR transmitter”
And then install lirc-modules-source:
sudo apt-get install lirc-modules-source
Now for Nuvoton 677 .deb’s
wget "http://europe.asrock.com/downloadsite/drivers/Nettop/Ubuntu/IR(10.10)2.6.35-22.zip"
Unzip this:
unzip IR\(10.10\)2.6.35-22.zip
Install the deb inside the unzipped catalog:
sudo dpkg -i lirc-nct677x-1.1.0-ubuntu10.10-kernel2.6.35.deb
Choose “Nuvoton Transceivers/Remotes” and “None” in the IR transmitter dialog.
To try if this installed correctly, you can run irw and press buttons:
irw
You should see something like this
user@compy:~$ irw
000000037ff07bdd 00 OK mceusb
000000037ff07bdd 01 OK mceusb
000000037ff07bdd 02 OK mceusb
000000037ff07bf3 00 Power mceusb
000000037ff07bf3 01 Power mceusb
000000037ff07bf3 02 Power mceusb
The remote should now be ready to be used with e.g. XBMC
Shout off in the comments if something is unclear!
EDIT: Does this work with Ubuntu 11.04? Please comment or email me!
