Hi , i try to configure openwrt for this http://www.raspberry-pi-geek.com/Archiv … -IR-remote , but not found software LIRC on trunk repository .

What do I need to complete the build software of this article?

Thanks your help .

NOTES :

I use a last image to install openwrt and a last softwares , from this link : https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots … 8/generic/

uname -a
Linux OpenWrt 4.4.14 #1 Sun Jan 22 17:33:02 UTC 2017 armv6l GNU/Linux

AFAIK there is no LIRC package at the online repos, you must build LIRC yourself. I packaged LIRC some time ago, which should work with your device

https://github.com/danitool/openwrt-pkgs/tree/cc/lirc

I assume the lirc-rpi module is already included for your kernel.

Thanks your answer.

how i compile this source (how-to for i read and execute this procedure) ? https://github.com/danitool/openwrt-pkgs/tree/cc/lirc

I try check my system to Identify what not is included , see :

An easy way is to drop the lirc directory into the package subdirectory in your build root, then with

make menuconfig

it should appear under utilities

Not sure, but the module isn't selected/compiled in your target. You probably need to select the lirc-rpi module in your kernel

make kernel-menuconfig

and then compile your own image

sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev gawk gcc-multilib flex git-core gettext libssl-dev -y

make menuconfig

In this step , no have option to select , (probably no have file .config or did I do something wrong) .

Is can guide me in this steps ?
