Managed to do thhis! Works like a charm, though using a complete version of ubuntu 9.10.

I've written a guide here...

Hi

With this setup are you able to wake the mac up from sleep using the remote?

Thanks!

Also tried to get wake from suspend using an ir remote. There is an explanation here:

http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Enable_Wake-On-Device

Problem is... once the USB ports are active to allow wake from suspend, the mini wakes immediately rather than from any mouse/keyboard movement. As for getting the remote (which according to lirc is a USB receiver on the mini) to do this... no success yet.

Would be great if anyone else has an answer.

Hi

I have followed your solution for the remote control (including harmony) and everything works, but each time I push a button in the remote is like pushing it four times, what makes the control almost unusable. (Repetition problem)

Does the same happen to you?
