I Install XBMC Karmic alpha 2 and everything is working good, I have the original XBOX dongle working with the original XBOX remote control, If i replace the original dongle with the MCE it also works fine. I am trying to learn to use different remote controls that are not really used by default and i am having a very difficult time.
This is what I understand so far:
/etc/lirc/lircd.conf has a link to remote control located here and using the following command:
include "/usr/share/lirc/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb"
If I add an extra line/command to use another remote:
include "/usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge"
the Hauppauge remote does not work when I test it using irw command.
If I remove the line:
include "/usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge"
from lircd.conf and I open /usr/share/lirc/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb instead and add my remote control to the end of that file. I am able to see the remote control working when using irw command.

The question here is why I can't use
include "/usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge"

also inside the /usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge folder there are two files:
lircd.conf.hauppauge I understand this one but the other one i have no clue what is for or if i need it for anything?
lircmd.conf.hauppauge

even do i have irw reporting both codes from my Hauppauge and MCE remote I cant get XBMC to work with the hauppauge remote at all. I will need help there too.

thank you

This is my remote control:

and this one:
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31...AA272_.jpg
using: IR receiver = OVU4000/00 (I was unable to find a picture of it)

I fixed my issue:
I end up doing two things: I added this code to end of this file /usr/share/lirc/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb
Code:
#
# this config file was automatically generated
# using lirc-0.6.6(animax) on Tue Apr 15 19:50:27 2003

# contributed by

# brand: Hauppauge
# model no. of remote control:
# devices being controlled by this remote: PVR 2/350

end remote

I Also copy the /usr/share/xbmc/system/Lircmap.xml to:
/home/xbmc/.xbmc/userdata

after the file was copy I added this code to the end of the file:

I hope this will help other's.
now I am able to use either remote control. my MCE or my Hauppauge.

I still have the question as to why I was unable to add this line:
include "/usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge"
to: /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
