[Ubuntu] MCE Remote help
#1
First posting on this forum here. So far I've managed to save myself by reading only. Today I've been stranded...
I've got an MCE remote and my power button doesn't shut my HTPC down. I've looked at several forum posts but I can't figure out where to start looking to get this fixed. Basically I want two things:
1. Power button shuts down HTPC
2. Windows button shows OSD

Here is some output I managed to get:

showkey output
Code:
# power button
keycode 142 press
keycode 142 release

# windows button
keycode 226 press
keycode 226 release

XBMC Debugging output
Code:
# Power button
16:10:10 T:6346512   DEBUG: SDLKeyboard: scancode: 96, sym: 009f, unicode: 0000, modifier: 0

# Windows button
16:11:18 T:6346512   DEBUG: SDLKeyboard: scancode: ea, sym: 0000, unicode: 0000, modifier: 0
16:11:18 T:6346512   DEBUG: GetActionCode: Trying Hardy keycode for 0xf200

16:11:18 T:6346512   DEBUG: OnKey: 0 (f200) pressed, action is

In the XBMC Debugging output both buttons present the "f200" number and that confuses me. They should be different in my opinion...

I was running OpenELEC and now I switched to XBMCbuntu Eden beta 2. In OpenELEC the remote was working fine so I started comparing the two. However OpenELEC uses eventlirc stuff which I can't relate to the config of XBMCbuntu which uses just lirc.

I'm running a Shuttle XS35GT, 30GB Kingston disk and 1GB of Kingston memory. Lsusb tells me I have a TopSeed Technology Corp. RF Combo Device remote control which is identical to this one: http://www.topseed.com.tw/gptype.htm

Any help is appreciated!
