size=2>However, when working with Myth, I did purchase the Logitech MX-5000
keyboard and mouse combo. This generally worked well, although it would
disconnect once in a while. Also purchased a Philips IR (Model SMK-8630)
keyboard and reciever for 20 or 25 dollars. This was OK, but the response was a
little slow.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

the most part, this works well. The main drawback is that the IR
receiver<BR>occasionally misses the key-up part of the IR signal from the
URC-6131<BR>remote, and MythTV responds as if this were many keypresses in
quick <BR>succession. Perhaps disabling auto-repeat in X would fix this, but
I haven't<BR>gotten around to trying it. I have yet to see this happen when
I'm using the<BR>actual keyboard.</BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR>I had the exact same problem - very annoying when it happened when
increasing the volume ! :-) And indeed, turning off auto-repeat
does the trick. I just added "xset r off" to my .xinitrc and that solved
the problem perfectly. <BR><BR>As far as remotes go, I learned my keyboard
keystroke on a Sony RM-VL600 and it's quite nice - all the buttons I need, and
it's relatively inexpensive - around $40 canadian. Good simple
combination without futzing with a serial lirc receiver. Highly
recommended. <BR><BR><A
