The reason I asked, was because I am fed up with my damn remote control reciever not working (one of those cheap hewlett packard models that toggles DCD as it detects IR). Windows has drivers, Linux has drivers, FreeBSD has nothing. (Diane Bruce: Hi! You might remember this rant of mine from a while back :) ) But, I did actually find something which almost does the job - PPS. (RFC2783) It's implemented in sio.c, but stops short of being useful (does not provide blocking). So I figure it must either provide blocking, or return a list of events instead of just 1. But that'd break the API in the RFC...thankfully the RFC is not a standard yet. So as it stands, FBSD is still incapable of dealing with remote controls. --Bart To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-realtime" in the body of the message
