just got mine.
threw in the dongle it worked fine for about 2 min. then became un-responsive. switched the batteries and it seems to be working fine again. this thread is becoming quite large. so i'll ask here has anyone mapped a color button to "C" or the context menu yet? if so mind sharing how you did it?
running live on a zotac (atom) nettop.

Ok, have a VERY strange problem occuring with my remote. Configured the red button as a start up for XBMC by assigning Shift+F3 in the start up shortcut, also have the red button configured to run the XBMC.ShutDown() command in my xml file. I started up XBMC by double clicking the short cut and exited by pressing the red button no problems, i then stared xbmc by pressing the red button, tried to exit by pressing the red button but nothing happened. Exited XBMC and for some reason the red button is now executing CTRL+ALT??
I've tried uninstalling all the drivers for it, unplugging the dongle, removing the batteries for over 5 minutes, all to no avail.
EDIT: Ok, seems to be a bug in the software of the device, i have just done the same thing on the blue button with the exact same result.

just wondering.. is there a linux package available with the proper remote mappings and fixes available? I used to have my system set up from some repo for semi-regular upgrades and bug reports. I've been developing on Android lately so I've been out of the loop.... I think I'm ready to try something a bit more cutting edge/bleeding edge, but not nightlies on my main media center.
