It requires lirc (http://www.lirc.org) to run. There are lirc ipkgs +for the iPaq in the Handhelds.org feed. You must first install the +lirc-modules-[kernel version] ipkg, and then the lirc ipkg with the +-force-depends option. The Zaurus is supported, but requires you to compile +from lirc's CVS. Zaurus support should be in lirc 0.6.6 and up. Check the learn +tab in opie-remote for more detailed configuration and usage instructions. + +I will talk to the Open Zaurus people about providing an lirc ipkg for the +Zaurus, but i cant make one, as i dont have a Zaurus, and cannot test it. + +todo: +add a frontend for irrecord (to make it a true learning remote) +make the UI completely user configurable (button layout, position, etc) +ButtonDialog needs to support default remote and button settings, so what the +button is already set to shows up. +fix any bugs + +contact info: +thomas: spiralman@softhome.net (currently the only developer) +im also on #opie and #handhelds.org on irc.openprojects.net a lot, so look for +me there. |
