After upgrading to 12.04 from 10.10 my mythbuntu standard MCEUSB remote no longer works
- by keepitsimpleengineer
I had no problems using my Windows Media Center Remote with 10.10 Mythbuntu, but after upgrading, it no longer affects Mythbuntu.
I have verified and re-installed it in Mythbuntu Control Centre.
I have used irw to verify the ir buttons actions are properly received by the HTPC.
How do I go about fixing this?
