[mythtv-users] RE: xbox dvd remote on xebian 1.1.4

[Daniel Walton]

I commented out

 InputDevice "LIRC-Mouse"

in my XFree86 config file and that stoped the mouse from moving over the screen
via the remote but the remote still isn't working in myth.  Here are the file
permissions, how I launch myth (via apps on bootup), etc:

live at xbox:~$ whoami
live
live at xbox:~$ ls -l .lircrc
-rwxr-xr-x  1 live live 7062 Dec  6 17:37 .lircrc
live at xbox:~$
live at xbox:~$ ls -l .mythtv/lircrc
lrwxrwxrwx  1 live live 18 Dec  6 00:20 .mythtv/lircrc
-> /home/live/.lircrc
live at xbox:~$
live at xbox:~$ cat .fluxbox/apps
[startup] {mythfrontend}
[app] (mythfrontend)
  [Deco]        {NONE}
[end]
