Hi list,

I upgraded my mythbox, first from fedora17 to 18 and now to 19 using fed
up.  After the first upgrade, the remote stopped working properly.  I used
a harmony with a pvr-350 receiver (RC5).

The system is definitely recognizing keystrokes as verified by dmesg when I
start the ir-kbd-i2c module in debug mode.  I have verified that the keymap
I am loading is fine and running ir-keytable -r shows keystrokes.  I just
no output when I run irw.  I have stopped and restarted lirc plenty of of
times, I have tried different lirc.conf files from the lirc-remotes
package.  I am just stumped here.

As an aside, some of the keys appear to be recognized as keyboard
keystrokes if I use different keymaps than the custom one I have created (I
can verify this by opening a text editor and inputting text with the
remote).  I would be fine just getting rid of lirc and using my harmony
remote and receiver as a keyboard, but unsure how to do that.
