Thanks for the replies. This morning, I uninstalled and reinstalled lirc. I seem to have gotten further on the CIR thing, but it still does not actually work. irw shows nothing, and XBMC, while loading support for remote controls, doesn't receive or register any remote control activity.

my "irfix" script:

Code:

sudo modprobe -r nuvoton-cir
echo "auto" | sudo tee /sys/bus/acpi/devices/NTN0530\:00/physical_node/resources
sudo modprobe nuvoton-cir

output from dmesg seems quite promising:

Code:

But then irw registers no events. I'm starting to think my hardware is busted.
