[Voyage-linux] Voyage MPD & LIRC

[Navas Abubacker]

Hi,

I tried downgrading the package still no luck, But I made it works using the
following hardware.conf file

# /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

#Don't start irexec, even if a good config file seems to exist.
#START_IREXEC=false

#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES=true

# Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers.
DRIVER="pinsys"
# If DEVICE is set to /dev/lirc and udev is in use /dev/lirc0 will be
# automatically used instead
DEVICE="/dev/ttyS0"
MODULES="lirc_serial"

REMOTE="Packard Bell receiver"
REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
START_LIRCD="true"
