maemo.org - Talk - QtIrreco for N900

im having a problem getting this soft working. ive added a remote called BLAHBLAH into qtirreco (ADD from manufacturer, place buttons etc) and it has appeared in lircd.conf
ive done a irsend SEND_START BLAHBLAH 1 and looked at my phone with a digitalcamera and i can see the led flashing..

but i cannot get qtirreco to flash the led when i press the buttons?

i forgot to paste the contents of the term window. note ive done a sudo gainroot before this

/home/user # qtirreco
QGtkStyle cannot be used together with the GTK_Qt engine.
user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

i dont think this happens in a non gainrooted terminal

Re: QtIrreco for N900

If you have the IR codes (either find them online if they exist) or grab them from a remote (use an IR recorder) then you can.
