Then you should have said so earlier...

No doubt that that includes "--no-kbd --lirc". (With a xine-lib-based front
end, though, it appears to be better to leave the remote control to the front
end. With current gxine, you need to use ~/.gxine/lircrc.)

This is still a little odd. I don't see anything in there which would cause
vdr's LIRC support (when enabled) to fail unless lircd isn't running; with my
build of 1.3.24, it just works.

(I'm assuming that you got source for 1.2.6-12, 1.2.6-13 or my 1.3.24-1 via
apt-get and that you rebuilt the packages by running 'debuild binary' or
otherwise using the debian/rules file.)


BTW, don't top-post. Don't quote signatures or attachments (unless you're
specifically referring to them)...
