USB Infrared Toy / Buggy...
Ian,

Is there a bug free way to use IRToy in Linux, if not I would request you to pls. mention this "limited" Linux support at all the places one can buy this as this not only wastes them money but also gets frustrating with no help anywhere and almost non-existence of firmware updates or someone/community even willing to get over these bugs.

Pls. don't take this the wrong way, I appreciate your work but this is what I felt.

Thanks

USB Infrared Toy / Serious IRToy v222 Bug
IRToy v 22 seems to have a serious bug which makes it unresponsive after sometime.  The problem seems that the device goes into debug mode after some time of inactivity (or some other reason) and needs a replug to get working again. This is what I found using
Code: [Select]
lsusb -v | less


When working correctly :
Code: [Select]
 
  Device Status:    0x0000
  (Bus Powered)

When NOT :

Code: [Select]
  Device Status:     0x47d8
  (Bus Powered)
  Debug Mode

Any ideas, fixes, suggestions, comments ?

USB Infrared Toy / Raspberry Pi and IRToy v222
I am trying to get my USB IRToy v 2 with firmware 22 running on RPi (Debian wheezy), after almost 6 hours I finally got it recognized by Pi after installing patched LIRC for USB_IRTOY.

Now, when I try to run LIRC service no output is shown on screen and it just exits, irw and irrecord -n -H irman -d /dev/ttyACM0 RemoteXXX.conf show following errors :

Code: [Select]
root@NAS:~# irw
connect: Connection refused
root@NAS:~# irrecord -n -H irman -d /dev/ttyACM0 RemoteXXX.conf
Driver `irman' not supported.
Supported drivers:
        usb_irtoy

Pls. help.
