Hi all, I'm having a problem with my Kodi system. Unfortunately I don't use |
2 |
the Kodi system very often (the system also runs as a general server on my |
3 |
network so most of my work on it is done through ssh) so I don't know |
4 |
exactly when this happened, but it would have been in the last couple of |
5 |
months. |
6 |
|
7 |
The problem is that the iMON IR remote stopped working at some point. I |
8 |
have an Antec Fusion Remote Black case that uses an iMON LCD and IR |
9 |
receiver. This was working fine with evdev/X/Kodi but at some point stopped |
10 |
working, and since I haven't used the Kodi interface for a few months I |
11 |
don't know exactly what broke it. |

It looks like the most interesting information comes from Xorg.0.log: |

|
32 |
I've tried googling "evdev Don't know how to use device" but haven't found |
33 |
anything relevant. Does anyone have any clues about what I could be |
34 |
missing? It looks like xf86-input-evdev 2.10.5 went stable back in March |
35 |
2017, and I'm pretty sure that the remote was working after that. |
