Infared Reciever w/ Alpine on the Bulldozer Datto

Revision as of 03:41, 23 May 2024 by Lucka (talk | contribs)

Had some issues with the bootloader after installing alpine originally, ended up using ventoy's "Local Boot" option to get into my alpine install and then manually installed grub using: grub-install


Now we need to get wifi working: [1]

vim /etc/apk/repositories and uncomment the community repo

We'll be needing these packages:

apk add networkmanager networkmanager-wifi wpa_supplicant networkmanager-tui networkmanager-cli

Networkmanager needs udev to work for wifi:

setup-devd udev


Getting infared working:

Looks like alpine has some infared tools in a package called:

v4l-utils and ir_keytable

ir-ctl -d /dev/lirc0 -r running this gets me data when i click ir buttons
