Re: [Freevo-users] Using a wireless presenter to control Freevo
Hi, Just got to the last bit there where you mention the wiki and that's where I was going to say to check. Freevo doesn't natively support mouse navigation I understand, but I was thinking, maybe there's a way of fooling the Linux OS in thinking that mouse-down is the same as the down button on a keyboard or joystick? :-) The mouse on this thing is a sort of joystick anyway... it only identifies itself as a mouse. An imap search just found a posting in freevo-users from 2004 that doesn't look encouraging - see Re: Plans for mouse input? I found that one too, but hey, it's three years later.. a lot could have happened in the mean time ;-) Wait, just found this - http://studio.kyperjokki.fi/engine/FreevoPointerInput. Doubt that diff will apply now though :) I found that one as well... but the latest change on the page is already a year old, and I'm pretty sure I won't be able to apply this to Freevo 1.7.2:-D If I only understood Python... *sigh* A google for 'freevo mouse patch' might help, patches welcome Yeah, did that but couldn't find anything, that's why I asked the list... hoping somebody knows more than I have found so far.

Does your remote have an event interface under Linux? You can tell by using lsinput (package input-utils) If it does then you can use the lircd with dev/input driver See http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/LircDevInput for a guide, which I wrote for the PVR-350 but should be relevant to any event driver.

[Freevo-users] A Thank you to the Developers for the Free Software
I was feeling a bit un-appreciated as a Developer and I thought of all the other developers of Open Source (Free) Software who relentlessly contribute to/make Open Source (free) software. I just wanted to take some time to officially say *Thank You* for all the good things which you guys/gals have made to my(/our) benefit, of which has either saved my skin or improved my work efficiency. To All of you, I say a Big Thank You for it. Let no one tell you that you are Un-appreciated for all the hard work you have poured into your relevant projects. Seriously, Thank you. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop. Now Search log events and configuration files using AJAX and a browser.
