Thanks for the help ! I did all these...but when i give cec-client the answer is:   

 
No device type given. Using 'recording device'
CEC Parser created - libCEC version 2.1.4
no serial port given. trying autodetect: FAILED
 
 
If i give  cec-client -l  then...
 
Found devices: NONE
 
And if i give  cec-client -s -d 1  then...
 
autodetect FAILED

I would think that this is a function of the Drivers installed on the box and as this information is probably unimportant to the manufacturers it is not asked so not available.
