LIRC

I've been using XBMC for a little while.  I have a Rosewill remote RHRC-11002.  Had been working fine but then stopped working.

Turns out in the XBMC Lircmap.xml this remote is known as mceusb but somehow LIRC is now reporting that the device is mceusb_hauppauge.

The fix is to edit /usr/share/xbmc/system/Lircmap.xml and change the known device to mceusb_hauppauge:


root@xbmc:/usr/share/xbmc/system# diff -c Lircmap.xml.20120804 Lircmap.xml
*** Lircmap.xml.20120804 2012-03-23 20:25:30.000000000 -0400
--- Lircmap.xml 2012-08-04 05:44:31.617871872 -0400

Done, and my remote is now working again.
