Why you should not use kuroevtd
kuroevtd is old and is not working well ! Most people can't switch off their kurobox by pressing the power button, and it's kuroevtd's fault ;) kuroevtd's author didn't stopped his project, he just renamed it to avr_evtd as it can runs on the kurobox, but also on linkstation devices !
Install avr_evtd
- Download avr_evtd from this page : https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=167880&package_id=190867
- de-tar the file (was called avr_evtd020606.tar.bz2 when writing this guide)
tar xjf avr_evtd020606.tar.bz2 && cd avr_evtd/usr/src/avr_evtd
- Build the file
make avr_evtd
- Install the file
make install
- Make avr_evtd running at startup and stoping at shutdown
cd /etc/rc0.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd K20avr_evtd cd /etc/rc1.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd K20avr_evtd cd /etc/rc2.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd S20avr_evtd cd /etc/rc3.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd K20avr_evtd cd /etc/rc4.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd S20avr_evtd cd /etc/rc5.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd S20avr_evtd cd /etc/rc6.d/ && ln -s ../init.d/avr_evtd K20avr_evtd
- Edit the start script to allow avr_evtd to run without udev installed
nano /etc/init.d/avr_evtd
and replace
cat /proc/tty/driver/serial | grep 80004500 | grep -q 0: && DEVICE=/dev/ttyS0 || DEVICE=/dev/ttyS1 uname -m | grep -q mips && MIPS=YES
with
if [ -e /dev/AVR00 ]; then DEVICE=/dev/AVR00 else cat /proc/tty/driver/serial | grep 80004500 | grep -q 0: && DEVICE=/dev/ttyS0 || DEVICE=/dev/ttyS1 uname -m | grep -q mips && MIPS=YES fi
Remove kuroevtd
To avoid conflict between 2 applications that have the same goal, you need to remove kuroevtd :
- remove script file
rm /etc/init.d/kuroevtd
- remove start/stop symlinks
rm /etc/rc?.d/K20kuroevtd /etc/rc?.d/S20kuroevtd
- remove configuration files
rm -r /etc/kuroevtd
- remove application
rm /usr/sbin/kuroevtd
Conclusion
Now your power button can be used normaly (yeah !) You can also edit /etc/avr_evtd/EventScript file to assign different actions for a button (sending a message to a network device before shutting down for example, running a backup script when pressing the red button ...) !
