maybe i am; i do have little linux knowledge, and everything i do is based from other users problems.<br>i agree, what i currently have seems way to complicated and i seem to have more problems than most!<br><br>so how do you get lirc to use the mceusb module? In the lirc 0.8.7 ./configure script, it has a profile for mceusb. Select it, continue through the configure section, make, and then make install works.<br>
Lirc 0.9.0 doesnt include the mceusb module and it doesnt detect 'mceusb' module automatically (i presume it should do if it's now included in the kernel), so i cant 'repair' lirc to get it working again after the TV card drivers are installed.<br>

</div>Your description of what you've done is mostly incoherent to me. The mceusb driver<br>
is in the kernel. You install lirc userspace. You tell lirc userspace to use<br>
either the event device from the mceusb driver, or its lirc device (/dev/lirc0),<br>
and that's about all there is to it. No reinstalling anything over the top. Either<br>
you, or the mythbuntu lirc config, are making this way harder than it actually is.<br>
