Hello,
I recently installed XMBCBuntu (xbmcbuntu-12.2.Intel-NVIDIA) on a Gigabyte Brix (GB-XM12-3227).
I have a Lenovo usb-keyboard/mouse attached to it and a standard (original) Microsoft Remote Control (RC6 Receiver/MCE Remote).
The installation went quite smoothly and I had XBMC up and running in no time, except for the remote.
This was strange as I had read that this should be working "out of the box", certainly as I was using a standard MCE remote.
I checked if LIRC was installed in XMBCBuntu and it was running.
lsusb told me that my remote was detected (Philips (or NXP) eHome Infrared Receiver).
I also ran the configuration routine for LIRC (dpkg-reconfigure lirc) and selected the "Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all)"
dmesg |grep mceusb or lirc doesn't show any issues.
I'm not really that familiar with Linux (first install) and am currently stuck on how to take this further.
Is there someone who can help me figure out what is going wrong here?
Please let me know if I need to post additional logs/screens.
Peter
