Disable ir on 6984

Disable ir on 6984

Postby speedyrazor » Sun Aug 30, 2015 2:25 pm

Hi, I am on Xubuntu 15.04 with a TBS6984 and am trying to disable to ir on this card so Linux doesn't see it.
Could you give me the instructions on how to do this please?
This is the outpur of cat /proc/bus/input/devices:

I: Bus=0001 Vendor=6984 Product=0013 Version=0001
N: Name="saa716x IR (TurboSight TBS 6984)"
P: Phys=pci-0000:04:00.0/ir0
S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.5/0000:04:00.0/rc/rc0/input3
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=kbd event3
B: PROP=0
B: EV=100013
B: KEY=3000000100c0000 34301100000000 0 100000 408000000800 8e168000000000 ffc
B: MSC=10

I tried creating a file /etc/modprobe.d/options-dvb.conf and adding this line:
Code: Select All Code
options cx23885 enable_tbs_ir=0

After a reboot, nothing changed, Linux can still see and use the ir.

Kind regards.

Hi speedyrazor, maybe too late, but...

How did you try to use IR from your TBS6984?
In my case (From Debian 6 to Debian 8, kernel 2.6 to 3.16), IR allways worked, tested with vdr client.

This is the output of "cat /proc/bus/input/devices" , a card using same module of 6984.

Code: Select All Code
I: Bus=0001 Vendor=6925 Product=0001 Version=0001
N: Name="saa716x IR (TurboSight TBS 6925)"
P: Phys=pci-0000:04:00.0/ir0
S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/0000:04:00.0/rc/rc2/input9
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=kbd event8
B: PROP=0
B: EV=100013
B: KEY=c00 0 3000000108c0000 234301100000000 0 118000 418000000801 8e968000000000 ffc
B: MSC=10


Kind regards
