Like I said previously, the only way I know the thing is seeing keypresses is by looking at dmesg or the syslog - evtest and irw pick up nothing, nor does xev or anything else I know to test with. I think lirc is properly configured, insofar as i can change the device to point to my multimedia keyboard using the devinput driver which can then be picked up by lirc...<br>
<br>I do know the actual tuner is receiving the remote keypresses because of the changes to the codes listed in syslog...<br><br>Hope this helps you (help me ;) )<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Matt<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Matthew Vermeulen<br>
