I just walked over and plugged a keyboard in to the FE. Hitting "v"
worked just fine. After fiddling with things for about 15 minutes and
not getting any where, I tried simply re-typing the section in the
lircrc file that I had previously used cut-n-paste in to place, and
viola! It is working.
There must have been some control character or other hidden character in
place that mythtv didn't like..
Thanks!
