Hi.
As I understand, this hardware returns sampled IR signal, so it can be
used with any remote, right?
Then why not to implement lirc driver?
This driver as I understand is a driver for single remote shipped with
the notebook.
I have recently wrote a lirc driver for my receiver, a lirc driver. Now
I can use all my remotes.
And no, I don't need any software support for that. LIRC happily
forwards all events via uinput to kernel, so I use it a an ordinary
keyboard.
Best regards,
