Hey guys! While I am fine tuning my xbmc install and learning how to use it, I purchased a logitech harmony one remote and I am having a hard time to figure out how to make it work with my slackware htpc...
SO basically, here's what I have:
lircd.conf (taken from http://lircconfig.commandir.com/lircd.co...emote=1252)
then lirc is started at system boot time. It spits no errors. I also tried to start it manually by first killing the process and restarting it by typing "lircd" as root.
I have a IR receiver that came with my Dell XPS laptop. See http://www.redplanettrading.com/ebay/rem...00USED.jpg for a picture of it. Can I use it?
Basically, I believe the first step will be to make sure the machione and lirc can interact with the remote controller. Then, I will look into binding XBMC and lirc together.
Am I right? If so, somebody can help me to get going? All that remote stuff is black magic to me, I never played around with that stuff before.
Thanks to all!!
