Hi,
For a basic Linux installation which IR driver set will the IR component need please?
IR drivers
Re: IR drivers
Currently we don't have a ready solution for IR drivers. Unfortunately I cannot tell when we will have one.

Is there some documentation about the IR hardware, such that someone else could write a driver for it?irads wrote:Currently we don't have a ready solution for IR drivers. Unfortunately I cannot tell when we will have one.
Of course a side-question is: why isn't fit-pc3 using one of the many already supported IR hardware?
Re: IR drivers
The IR controller is SMSC SIO1007. Users that wish to develop their own IR driver are welcome to do so.
There are many design considerations - space, power, features, availability, longevity, SW support to name a few. In the case of this Super IO, not just IR is used but other features - eg serial port.why isn't fit-pc3 using one of the many already supported IR hardware?
Re: IR drivers
I can't find any doc about this chip. Is it anything like the SIO1000?irads wrote:The IR controller is SMSC SIO1007. Users that wish to develop their own IR driver are welcome to do so.
Could it be that it doesn't need a driver (if it's anything like the case of http://thomas.patrickdepinguin.com/know ... ntrol-lirc)?
Re: IR drivers
We can provide the datasheet to interested developers, but we cannot publish it.
