Thanks for answering, Marko. And sorry for asking a maybe stupid question - how do I turn on the debug output? There is no such option in make menuconfig, and modinfo -p mantis only returns: verbose:verbose startup messages, default is 1 (yes) In general, should the remote control appear as an input device (like it used to with the old, not-merged mantis driver) or is it possible that the approach has changed to an LIRC-driver where no input device is created? Also: your mail suggests that support may just be broken in the mainline kernel. In that case the info from the DVB wiki would just be incorrect and I would be looking for a solution that does not exist - is that just a hunch or do you acutally know it's not working?
