Hello,

I configured my remote control via LIRC and checked it:

$ irw
0000000080010067 00 vol+ TwinHanRemote
000000008001006c 00 vol- TwinHanRemote
0000000080010068 00 ch+ TwinHanRemote
000000008001006d 00 ch- TwinHanRemote

etc...

But if I start mythtv frontend then it not works. In syslog are these
messages:

14703:Jan  9 18:11:55 ferda lircd-0.8.0[11585]: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
14704:Jan  9 18:11:55 ferda lircd-0.8.0[11585]: initializing '/dev/input/irremote'
14705:Jan  9 18:11:55 ferda lircd-0.8.0[11585]: removed client
14706:Jan  9 18:11:55 ferda lircd-0.8.0[11585]: closing '/dev/input/irremote'

In /var/lib/mythtv/.lircrc I have: (it is mythtv homedir)

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = ch+
    repeat = 3
    config = Up
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = ch-
    repeat = 3
    config = Down
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = vol+
    repeat = 3
    config = Right
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = vol-
    repeat = 3
    config = Left
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = play
    config = Return
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = stop
    config = Esc
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = pause
    repeat = 3
    config = P
end

I read that can be problem with some window managers, so I installed
fvwm and started by starting X.

Thanks for any help
