lx_cool_j,
quick q: where did you get the lircd.conf from?
I tried to make one with irrecord, but I get zeros for all of the codes. Bizarrely, I tried to make a conf file for the mouse event device and that worked.
Any info of how you did it would be great.
If anyone else has any advice, it will be appreciated too.
Thanks.

Post #15 works for the Hama MCE remote.
Things not working so far:
- mouse input via remote
- some keys are mapped to "combinations" (e.g. the #-key), which don't work in this configuration.
Any ideas?
I googled around somewhat. Apparently (correct me if I'm wrong) without lirc the remote control acts like a keyboard-mouse-combo.
Has anyone tried getting things to work by modifying the keyboard.xml?

Really, you need so much steps to get your remote to work?
I have a somewhat different problem now.
With 9.04, the remote just worked (after editing keymap.xml and lircmap.xml for my differend remote) in XBMC.
With 9.10, the remote just doesn't work in XBMC.
Note that it works for other apps I have configured so lirc is fine.
If the remote is working with lirc and it works with all my apps, how do I make XBMC notice it's there? I still have my keymap and lircmap back from 9.04 when it worked.

Excellent tutorial!
I am not running as root so I can't use your lircstart.sh script, but after weeks trying I finally have my xbmc running with my hama remote.
Thank you very much.

Is it running out of the box with 9.10 or do i still need lirc and the whole configuration?
What about the pre release xbmc 10.04 ?

Is it possible to start the xbmc from standby or hibernate?
