Hi all,

I have recently bought an Antec Fusion Remote Black case for my HTPC and I'm trying to get it to work perfectly.

I get it working for most of the time with the hack-ish script from Kenny Millington, however sometimes at boot it fails, probably because Kenny's script doesn't do any checks whatsoever.

I noticed that, since I upgraded to Karmic, lirc just works, even with the default init script. The lirc version in Karmic even includes the necessary modules to make the iMon work. The only problem is that if I use any other button than the joystick and surrounding buttons, it stops working until I reboot. Restarting lircd and removing the lirc_* modules doesn't help.

I would like to find out how to do it properly and with as little tinkering as possible in the default startup scripts, so I can safely upgrade in the future. Has anyone tried Karmic yet and solved this in a clean way?

the script is for lirc < 0.8.5

i use cvs-lirc (antec fusion remote black + karmic)
