The Asus DH Remote Control

 

The board ships with a remote control and a USB dongle. The dongle identifies itself as a USB HID device. I wasn't able to configure lircd for this remote with lircd's native drivers but Raj B Apte hacked the dvico driver and got the remote working =)

 

Hopefully a lircd developer writes a propper driver for it in the future, but for now Raj's "hack" works fine.

 

Download the hacked lircd 0.8.0 tarball (md5) an configure the sources to compile the dvico driver.

 

Sample lircd configuration for Debian:

 

/etc/lirc/hardware.conf

/etc/lirc/lircd.conf

~/.lircrc

 

 

Configuration for other distributions shouldn't be too different. File names and locations may vary of course.

 

Please note: "lircd.conf" is not used, but required to be set up in any case.

This works.

 

And I own an iPhone too, so I would try it out pretty soon.

 

I would rather just buy the hardware, which would be these 3, I don't need that program's special features.
