Hi,
I've installed XBMC on a minimal install of ubuntu. I have xbmc auto-login via the method of http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=38473. I bought this remote http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Rem...s#VRC-1100
I also installed lirc.
The issue I'm having is that the power button on the remote does not execute the shutdown button in xbmc (other buttons are working). I wanted to debug this via "irw" but when I'm in the console (no X), I just get funny characters out of irw. I googled for half the weekend but could not find out why, or how to debug.
Does anyone have any suggestion? I set up LIRC for a Windows remote using apt-get in ubuntu.
Thanks so much!
