Hi Damiano, Upgrade your install to ubuntu 10.10 (reboot required)
install lirc and lirc module sources Download the CIR receiver driver and source code for Ubuntu 10.10 32/64 bit ver:1.1.0 (kernel 2.6.35-22) from http://www.asrock.com/nettop/download.asp?Model=ION%20330HT&o=Linux Follow the manual http://www.asrock.com/nettop/download.asp?Model=ION%20330HT&o=Linux When you install the driver you can a screen where u need to select a receiver and sender for the remote. In the first two screen select none. You see a lirc restart, after that select nuvoton at receiver screen and none at the sender. Hope its accurate enough. I did the upgrade and driver install last week and it worked finally without any problems. Not sure you use it for XBMC, a new version of XBMC can be added with the repository: http://xbmc.org/theuni/2010/09/14/dharma-beta-2/ some nice new features are in it. -- lirc-modules-source-0.8.6-0ubuntu4: lirc_dev-2.6.33.patch breaks lirc-nct677x-src https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570700 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is a direct subscriber.
