Running XBMC 10.1 on Ubuntu 11.04.

I've gotten the twinhan IR remote/reciever to work with LIRC, confirmed it working with media apps in ubuntu and irw produces output.

But seems even though all looks good, xbmc ignores it? no idea what is stopping it working in XBMC.

#If lirc is to be reconfigured by an external application

#that doesn't have a debconf frontend available, the noninteractive

#It will then populate all other variables without any user input

#If you would like to configure lirc via standard methods, be sure

#to leave this set to "false"

Any ideas why it works for other apps, but not XBMC?

EDIT: Discovered that <lircmap> and </lircmap> were missing from Lircmap.xml, so now it is working, just to get the button mapping sorted now.
