Hi
I have som troubles with a MCE RC remote control. First of all, it is very slow, and some key presses are ignored. Secondly only the basic buttons are working, i.e. numbers and navigation. And a odd thing, some times it presses 7 by itself.
But first thing first. The basic operation is the most important.
Info:
Fresh install of Ubuntu 14.0 and Kodi RC3
MCE remote: Emprex 3009urf (RF interface, not IR)
lsusb
output: Bus 002 Device 005: ID 046e:5577 Behavior Tech. Computer Corp.

Basically I believe it is more a Linux problem than a Kodi problem. When I start LibreOffice, there is also a delay on any key press. By the way, If I connects the USB RF receiver wile the computer is booted, it will not work, and lsusb hangs forever. The remote did work perfect on my old computer running Win7.
H0pe some of you have an solution.
