[mythtv] Re: patch to fix lirc focus problems

[trev]

Hi all

I was trying to look at the code to figure out why the lirc focus is not 
working correctly in the EPG screen or the exit Mythtv screen (struggling 
somewhat, I have never done any C++ programming) when running a dual headed 
(non Xinerama) setup and I found this message in the mythtv-dev archive.
Since this is from Aug 9, 2003 is this a fix for a different lirc focus 
problem I have found references to or is this the same problem I have and if 
so will it work with Mythtv 0.17.
Sorry for such a dumb question but I'm working my way through "Teach Yourself 
C++" and am not really up to figuring this out yet.

Best Regards

Trev
