[mythtv-users] ir-kbd-i2c Driver

[Joe Votour]

Two questions:
1. Are you using a window manager?
2. Are you using irxevent?

Not using a window manager would cause a focus
problem, which combined with using irxevent would
cause the keystroke to go to the wrong window.

I haven't had any problems at all using lirc-compliant
applications (mythfrontend, xmame and xine are the
ones I use).
