Hello,

I am configuring new frontend, I buy a Sapphire remote and I want to use it.

I read mythtv wiki and Mark's website. I did this steps:

wget http://rtr.ca/sapphire_remote/sapphire-5.7.tar.gz
tar xzf sapphire-5.7.tar.gz
cd sapphire-5.7
make install

Add it in /etc/rc.local

/usr/local/bin/sapphire_startup.sh

When reboot, I get this info:

$ cat /proc/sapphire
event_count 0
last_key 0x00000000
elapsed_secs 4294967295

I have 0.27.3 from deb-multimedia backports with a fresh install, I
didn't configure any keymap yet.

I press keys but nothing change in the frontend menu and
/proc/sapphire always show the same. Need I configure something else?
Add keys?

The batteries are new.

Could someone help? This is my first time with Sapphire remote, I
always use MCE, want to try it!

Kind regards.
