A few weeks ago I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 and dharma, I'm also using an original xbox remote and having issues now. I did the minimal ubuntu install and xbmc live install off the Niki on my home built PC. It seems like 1/3 of the time the remote doesn't work and I have to reboot until it does. I'll do some searching about this lirc/ kernel thing.

It always worked fine and now with Maverick I can't get my X-box dongle up again.... Frown

@The-Boxhead I tried the guide from LJSeinfeld but I can't get lirc_atisub loaded. Is this the solution you are talking about? "disable the built in lirc kernel drivers and use the "normal" lirc drivers outside of the kernel"

@kiwiboyus you already got it working again?

Any luck with this issue?

This worked perfectly for me. The other guides like the OP just wouldn't work.

My Orig XBox remote is a clone I think. I got it from EBay and although it looks similar it doesn't actually say XBox on it anywhere.

Anyway, really chuffed that it's all working now. It's soooooo smooth and fast. much better than when it was on the XBox Big Grin
