'kay.
I was slightly confused because I only got one event-entry. :confused2:
Furthermore remote.xml and keymap.xml were successfully loaded, but the additional buttons were still without any functions.

I'm using the remote. It took me weeks and months to get XBMC up and running. Even if only a few buttons are working, I'm glad that suspend/resume works.
I'm scared that I screw something, if I try it again.
I'm curious. Will I need those steps if the remote is recognized and working correctly besides of some buttons?
Yes,
In my Karmic remote was working even without lirc. I did this steps (with some modification mentioned earlier) and now all butons are usable.

do you use the same HAMA remote? Could you post us your config, to give us an example what's the difference betwenn your config and the config which was posted were ?
I did the same Steps as explained in the tut in the first posting, plus the modification posted for karmic, so most buttons from my HAMA remote work well, but some functions, like OSD or codec Info are not configured by this tutorial. So, what changes i must do, to get this working ?

They are in the row under color buttons on my remote.

Really, you need so much steps to get your remote to work?
I have a somewhat different problem now.
With 9.04, the remote just worked (after editing keymap.xml and lircmap.xml for my differend remote) in XBMC.
With 9.10, the remote just doesn't work in XBMC.
Note that it works for other apps I have configured so lirc is fine.
If the remote is working with lirc and it works with all my apps, how do I make XBMC notice it's there? I still have my keymap and lircmap back from 9.04 when it worked.
Lircmap.xml & keyboard.xml not working in 9.11 - def87 - 2010-01-30 18:44
Excellent tutorial!
I am not running as root so I can't use your lircstart.sh script, but after weeks trying I finally have my xbmc running with my hama remote.
Thank you very much.

Is it running out of the box with 9.10 or do i still need lirc and the whole configuration?
What about the pre release xbmc 10.04 ?

Is it possible to start the xbmc from standby or hibernate?
