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. +Opie-Remote is a universal infra-red remote control application for Opie on +handhelds such as the iPAQ and the Zaurus.
