Hi Mark,
Thanks for responding.
input-kbd wasn't installed. I installed and ran it and got the following:

Does that get me any closer?
There's also the section of Mythbuntu which can supposedly auto
configure the IR receiver, but none of the options in the list appear
relevant to an IR receiver that plugs in to one of my TV cards. Would
that be a serial receiver option? It can't be one of the USB options I
assume.
Probably best to set it up manually if I can figure it out.
Thanks again
Damian
