Is there a way to get the IR Blaster of the HVR1600 card working under v4.15+ kernels?

It seems that lrc_zilog BUGs under 4.15+ and has gone missing in 4.16.

Thanks.

It seems that lrc_zilog BUGs under 4.15+ and has gone missing in 4.16.

In v4.16, lirc_zilog has been replaced with ir-kbd-i2c, which can now do IR transmit/blast. Please can you provide dmesg and try IR transmit with the associated /dev/lirc device (if one exists).

What is the BUG under v4.15?

Thanks

Sean
