IHAQ,

I'm running OpenELEC XBMC Media Centre Version: 4.0.5 on a Raspberri Pi B+ (RPi).

I have a generic MCE remote conrol that doestn't work out of the box when I connect it to the RPi (connected before starting the RPi).
What should I do to get the remote working under OpenELEC XBMC?

The remote has a USB dongle and a remote.
It does work out of the box, when I connect (even hotplug) it to the RPi when its running Raspbian OS.

Here are some diagnostical information about the remote's dongle when I connect the congle to Ubuntu Linux:

Because the remote + USB dongle do work under Raspbian Linux (Debian Weezy) on the same RPi hardware, I suppose it should be possible to get it working under OpenElec + XBMC?

Do you know how I might get it working?
