Ubuntu 8.10 XBMC PPA up to date.
i686...I think, but not sure bear with me it's the default 32bit download from Ubuntu site
I've followed a handful of guides step by step throughout the whole day for installing Ubuntu then XBMC. I was able to get pretty far, XBMC is running perfect and I've been able to install skins of my liking and add sources correctly, connect to the internet. But I keep getting hung on one thing.....my remote (probably sounds breaking glass to you guys, sure you hear about this often) I just can't get it working, I've uninstalled LIRC about 10 times re-installed ubuntu a couple times, located and replaced lircd.conf files. Gone through the set-up choosing different methods. This is one of the guides I used InstallLirc/Edgy
Here's what hardware I have:
Harmony 550: Programed to XBOX360 device
eHome Phillips MCE receiver: Rev.OVU4003/00
Motherboard: DFI DK Lanparty P35
CPU: Intel 5200 C2D
GFX: 8800GT Evga
Like I said everything works great except my remote, if anyone would be kind enough to share how I can get my remote working based on the method they used (so you'd probably need to have similar hardware?)
A couple other things that might help someone figure out what's going wrong:
"sudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc-modules-source" Isn't reporting back anything.
IRW command isn't reporting anything either.
