I recently bought an Antec Veris Multimedia Station Basic to put in my new pc and I don't know how to make it work with XBMC (Live). The IR receiver is actually made by Imon, which is supported by LIRC as far as I can tell. I have very little linux experience btw.
I realize that only the MCE remotes and receivers work out of the box with XBMC Live, but I would really like to use the IR receiver I mentioned above if at all possible. What I am trying to figure out is the following:
1. How do I tell if XBMC can see my IR receiver?
2. How do I tell if my IR receiver is receiving anything?
3. How do I configure it to work with XBMC?
