First off, please create a new message in future, rather than 
replying to a message then changing the subject...

That said, I've got a G4 Mini 1.42 as a test bedroom frontend .  I'm 
using Remote buddy, with an Apple remote and a MS MCE remote receiver 
(eHome)

This works OK, but I miss all the buttons that my MythDora frontend 
has downstairs (with the same remote)

I'm using a Universal package of 0.20-fixes-20061001 from
