[mythtv-users] Using MCE Remote with Antec Fusion / iMon LCD receiver?

Hi

> The instructions state to first remove the existing lirc from the system using apt-get remove lirc.  If I do this, apt-get will also remove several Mythtv components (dependency issues I think).  Since I will be installing a new lirc that I build from source (and not using apt-get), when I try to re-add the previously removed Mythtv components using apt-get, won't apt-get also want to re-install the distro's lirc?  Would it be better to NOT remove the distro's lirc and simply install my version on top of it?  The instructions do not address these issues.  I'm running Mythbuntu 8.10 0.21-fixes.


You don't have to remove lirc.

Follow the steps I've described there, this will get your LCD and IR
