[Device immediately reverts to bootloader; completely unusable]

Thanks so much for the quick response.

 

It's running off a 3A/5V stepdown regulator coming from a Powerwerx 30A/12V switching supply, either of which I'd be hard pressed to blame -- but okay, maybe.

 

Regardless, if you've got a replacement that behaves, I'll take it.  Will contact you privately about that.

 

Thanks again,

Eric

[Device immediately reverts to bootloader; completely unusable]

Dead in the water, right out of the box.  Need help ASAP.  Details are:

 

Target machine:  Raspberry Pi running raspbmc.  (the Pi was purchased together with with the flirc here)

GUI machine:  (1) x86_64 linux, (2) Windows 7 x32 (I've tried both).

 

1.  Setup flirc in either GUI machine.  No apparent issues; things look promising.

2.  Unplug device, move it to target machine.  HID keyboard device 0x20a0:0x0001 appears.

3.  Moments later, suddenly, the device disconnects and reappears as bootloader 0x20a0:0x0002.  No response to remote.

4.  Retry setup in a GUI machine.  A download occurs, and things look okay again.  Return to step 2.

5.  Lather, rinse, repeat, scream.

 

Here's the target machine's syslog.

Please respond VERY URGENTLY.  This is a SHOW-STOPPING bug and I surely cannot be the only one affected.

 

Thanks,

Eric
