RC6 IR remote control no longer working

Hello All!

I am having a problem with one of my XBMC machines. For no explainable reason, the remote for this machine has stopped working. I have two of the same, and have tried it on the other machine and it works fine. The remote from the other machine does not work on this one. I have swapped the IR receivers, and the same as the remote. Both work on one, but not the other.

I've compared both xorg.conf files, and don't see anything different between them.

Here is what I can think of to provide you with:

Computer 1, remote does not work:
