Like I said, took me a while to figure out. ;-) FWIW the lirc 'hauppauge' i2c device works on my old 2.6.11-rc2-bk3-20050125153357-default kernel'd suse 9.1 so must be the latest dvb code in the kernel (which given that all I did was install SuSE 10, didn't even bother to configure the cards and everything worked is rather nice :-) esp in comparison to the grief with suse 9.1 ) My bigest mistake was not trying the remote until after I'd installed lirc and assuming it'd work the same as my previous system. > > Your method seems so much easier, so I'll have to give it a go! > > Quite simple now I know what steps to follow!

I also run lirc via the suse init script and (irexec via .kde/Autostart), I can post a copy of the init script if you want but I assume something similar is included in all the distro's (s)rpm's HTH Druid
