Hey everyone.
Just installed Gotham on XBMCbuntu 14.04 LTS on a Lenovo Q150 nettop, installed using unetbootin to put the ISO on a flash drive. Atom somethingorother, using x86_64 architecture. Everything works as advertised BUT:
Have a lenovo-branded RC6 MCE remote and USB receiver. Have tested remote and receiver on a Windows machine, works perfectly, so that's not the problem.
Basically, doesn't work at all.
dmesg sees it as:
but cat /proc/bus/input/devices doesn't show it at all (which would likely explain why lirc isn't seeing it).
Any ideas? It's like the driver isn't installing when it is plugged in, at least that's how I'd describe a similar Windows problem.
I'm comfortable enough in linux to copy stuff off websites and basically understand what the commands are doing, but I don't live in linux so I don't think that way inherently.
