Well, I did so, but haven't had any response yet:
http://www.nabble.com/Support-for-winfast-2000-xp---Preparing-to-drop-lirc_gpio-td14586233.html
(patch also attached)
Does anyone else here have the Winfast 2000 XP card to test it? Even
if you don't use lirc, please consider helping. What you'd need to do
is on linux 2.6.22, check lirc with the input method doesn't work,
(ie. repeat what aputerguy does in
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-LIRC-GPIO-Unnecessary-now--p13608717.html )
apply the patch to linux, then see if it starts working. To make this
as easy as possible, to install lirc basically do:
wget http://lirc.sourceforge.net/software/snapshots/lirc-0.8.3pre1.tar.bz2
tar jxf lirc-0.8.3pre1.tar.bz2 && cd lirc-0.8.3pre1
./configure --with-driver=devinput && make && sudo make install
Thanks,
Laurence
