[mythtv-users] LIRC remote as mouse?

[Matt Hannan]

I just found this at fedoranews.org in an article about setting up the
ATI Remote Wonder in Linux.

Do you think this could be modified to work with the grey Hauppauge
remote?

#######################################################################
In order to use the remote as a mouse in XFree86, add the following
section to your X configuration (/etc/X11/XF86Config):

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "LIRC-Mouse"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/lircm"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "SendCoreEvents"
        Option      "Buttons" "5"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Add the following to your ServerLayout section in XF86Config, it should
look something like this:

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier "ServerLayout"
    Screen "Screen0"
    InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
    InputDevice "LIRC-mouse" "CorePointer"
    InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
