Since switching to Trusty I have some issues.
The most serious, is a complete kernel crash when the MCEUSB transceiver is connected.
I have used this Windows remote with XBMC for a couple years, right out of the box with no unique config required.
With the GP-IR02BK USB IR transceiver plugged in, it appears there is now an interrupt conflict.
I can get through the full how-to installation without the MCEUSB connected, but connect it, and soon a kernel panic occurs due to an interrupt.
Without Lirc installed, the remote functions...just not all the buttons work.
If I run the how-to, but skip the Lirc app install, I get through the installation ok, but the logs still show conflicts that are only present when the MCEUSB transceiver is connected.
Most likely this is a hardware issue...just strange how my hardware never changed and it appeared with Trusty
I reflashed the bios, ran memtest, changed USB ports and cables and tried several clean installs with a few different mini.iso versions, kernels, and coffees.
There is also an issue of UDisks not working.
I can manually mount drives using UDisks on the command line, but need root permissions.
udisks --dump - http://paste.ubuntu.com/9471221/
Resorted to fstab to automount local drives.
I do not know much about udisks, so it will take a while...
These logs are post how-to installation, without the MCEUSB transceiver connected.

These logs are from booting up with the the MCEUSB attached.

For now I am just running without the remote and using the web interface
