Hi guys,
Is there anyone here that had a success with the XBOX 1 DVD kit (dongle + remote) on Gotham?
I just love that remote and I've been using it for years. But after upgrading to Gotham, something seems to have changed with Lirc. The config files I used earlier, simply no longer works.
Help, plz...

My bad...
Forgot to mention that I have installed Gotham (and upgraded to 13.1) from the latest XBMC Live CD, which is built on Ubuntu 14.04. So it may have something related to Lirc and Linux Kernel.
Would love to use that XBOX remote again.

It could well be kernel related. From a terminal, 'lsusb' will list the connected usb devices - I presume the dongle is usb ? I'd also check dmesg to see what's going on. 'dmesg | grep "usb" ' would probably be a good starting place.

I spent hours on this exact issue yesterday, thinking it works by default on raspbmc, should be able to get it to work.
Accepted failure, Ordered a mce reomote .
