Hi there,
I have been trying to set up a new Asus eeebox EB1501P running XBMC over ubuntu, however I am having trouble setting up the remote control.
The 1501P comes with a built in IR receiver and Windows Media Centre remote.
I have tried the following guides in attempting to set it up:
But have had no success.
Further, the receiver does not appear when I use
and I get no response or a no such file or directory error when trying
The receiver does work under windows - so the hardware is good. I think the problem is ubuntu recognising the IR receiver, but am unsure how to go about rectifying this. Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
My details
XBMC version: 10.0 r35648
Ubuntu version: 10.10 - 32bit
Architecture: i686
Install Method: PPAs
