@lout: I will include a hook for lircd.conf in the next LiveXBMC release e.g. if lircd.conf will be put on the flash root it will be copied to the proper place.
Don't hold your breath, though...

@dCrypt: will check, tks for the bug report.

atv-bootloader wiki updated to include a guide for creating a USB flash drive that will boot LiveXBMC on the AppleTV.

See http://code.google.com/p/atv-bootloader/wiki/InstallLiveXBMC

Still working on getting a MS mce USB IR remote working. Everything (LIRC-wise) seems to be present, just does not seem to function.

Very nice so far. Nice job l.capriotti.

Ok first.
Shouldn't there be steps on how to do this in Linux?
I had to boot into Vista just to get this to work.
2nd.
There's no auto-detection of USB-sticks or other partitions. I had a really hard time configuring the fstab to include my USB Western Digital 500GB HDD, with the right permissions so I could actually read some files with xbmc.

Other than that. It seems to work ok. Smile

Although I had troubles with it on this build, but the previous worked great. So might have been me formating it wrong.

Can someone with a working mceusb IR remote post their LIRC hardware.conf.

Trying to debug my mine is not working.

Thanks

Sure. I'll just start up the linux box

And that looks the solution to my problem. Thanks, I'll give it a try when I return home again.

Needed to change the following

Code:

REMOTE_MODULES=""

REMOTE_DEVICE=""

START_LIRCD="false"

Code:

REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_mceusb2"

REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"

START_LIRCD="true"

Now "life is good" on LiveXBMC with the mceusb remote
