Hi,
A current related problem is that i2c based devices can only be bound to
only one of ir-kbd-i2c *or* lirc_i2c *or* lirc_zilog at any one time.
Currently it is somewhat up to the bridge driver which binding is
preferred. Discussion about this for the pvrusb2 module had the biggest
email churn IIRC.
Once lirc_dev is merged you can easily fix this: You'll have *one*
driver which supports *both* evdev and lirc interfaces. If lircd opens
the lirc interface raw data will be sent there, keystrokes come in via
uinput. Otherwise keystrokes are send directly via evdev. Problem solved.
cheers,
Gerd
PS: Not sure this actually makes sense for the i2c case, as far I know
these do decoding in hardware and don't provide access to the raw
samples, so killing the in-kernel IR limits to make ir-kbd-i2c
being on par with lirc_i2c might be more useful in this case.
