How to recover remote in Ubuntu 18.04 - tekno - 2018-10-27
I have an Xbox360 remote with custom button configuration that I have used on many vesions of Kodi/Ubuntu since XBMC.
I just installed Ubuntu 18.04 withKodi 17.6 to prepare for when 18 is available but now have no remote control. Google indicates there are a few different fixes but none specific that I see to Kodi.
I instaled ir-keytable but apparently there is more I must do and have no clue where to begin. From what I have read I may have to start from ZERO reconfiguring evey button , which would be difficult as I see it.
When I run ir-keytable -t I see no activity from remote.
I have all files where they would have been for 16.04
Thanks in advance
