How to get xbox remote to work 100% on gentoox?

Post by hatzaboge »

Please help me. How do I get Xbox dvd remote to *fully* work with Gentoox Home Editoin v4.0?

Right now only arrow keys in remote work.

There seems to be lot of postings regarding this matter but I haven't found complete answer to this issue.

I can't stop or pause while watching my recordings.

Can domebody enlighten the files I need to have in place. I'm mainly interested in content of lircrc and lircd.conf files:

~root/.mythtv/lircrc
/etc/lircd.conf

Here are my present settings:

Code: Select all

Xbox etc # cat lircd.conf
#
# LIRCD configuration file for Xbox DVD Kit
#
# Marko Friedemann <mfr@bmx-chemnitz.de>
#
#
# brand:             Microsoft
# model:             Xbox DVD Remote
# supported devices: Xbox DVD Remote via xpad-ir driver
#
# comment:           EXPERIMENTAL
