Power down, and power backup, and check what firmware you get on a cold boot<br>

Make sure you are using dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw<br>
/lib/firmware<br>
<br>
If you've got 1.20.fw in there, rename and create a symlink to .1.10.fw so you know that the only fw is the .1.10.<br>

For the Nova T-500<br>
<br>
Create a rule in udev<br>
<br>
su gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules<br>
<br>
KERNEL=="event*", ATTRS{name}=="IR-receiver inside an USB DVB receiver", SYMLINK+="input/irremote"<br>
<br>
Reboot I coulnd't get "sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart"<br>
Try replacing the event* with KERNEL=="input*" if event doesn't work.<br>
<br>
Reboot and CHECK the var/log/syslog and make sure that lirc can get access to the /dev/input/eventxx<br>
<br>
If this is in your syslog then shutdown.<br>
[6589]: can't get exclusive access to events coming from `/dev/input/eventxx' interface<br>
<br>
Power up and test the remote works via irw<br>
irw<br>
000000000001006c 00 ArrowDown NOVA-T500<br>
<br>
<br>
If you're on ubuntu/mythbuntu running 8.10 then you'll need to edit the <a href="http://lirc.fi" target="_blank">lirc.fi</a>, 9.04 has the lirc.fdi masks already there.<br>
<br>
Check the Info.product matches your ncase settings in /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi<br>
<br>
Edit your lirc.fdi file to match<br>
<br>
/usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi<br>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br>
<br>
<deviceinfo version="0.2"><br>
<device><br>
<match key="info.product" contains_ncase="IR-Receiver inside an USB DVB receiver"><br>
<merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge><br>
</match><br>
</device><br>
</deviceinfo><br>
Restart lirc<br>

Subject: [mythtvnz] Nova-T 500 Remote not working<br>
<br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
I am trying to get my new mythbox working and am stuck on the remote.<br>
<br>
The IR-reciever doesnt seem to be present at all. It has no entries<br>
in /proc/bus/input/devices or dmesg as far as I can see.<br>
Also, no LIRC modules appear to be loaded.<br>
<br>
Its a brand new nova-t 500 with a black remote.<br>
I have tried the LIRC repeated configs on <a href="http://mythkiwi.com" target="_blank">mythkiwi.com</a> to no avail<br>
<br>
On the plus side, freeview is all going :p.<br>
<br>
Any help world be much appreciate.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Mark<br>
<br>
