The Rosewill is a genuine MCE as you have suggested so I was wondering if I should switch it out. You make a good point though, there are some function keys such as the colored (red/blue/yellow) that have a set output with the keyboard type remote and would require extra fooling around in keyboard.xml to function properly. I was just curious why MCE...not argumentative if it came across as such.

it's not just the colored buttons. On one MCE clone I tested, the menu, guide, info, and a few others did not work.

I think the XBMC wiki + a forum search should tell you if a given remote will work properly under linux, and what type it is. The key differentiator is whether the remote is a genuine MCE "eHome" remote, or a keyboard emulator. See: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Rem...ol_Reviews. I'm not sure offhand which type the Rosewill is.

It's an "eHome" remote.
