I struggled with this when I upgraded my system. I am using a Harmony<br>
One but I believe I set it up the same way you set up your Harmony<br>
700, so likely, the very same issue(s).<br>
<br>
There are two potential issues. One is transitioning to ir-kbd-i2c<br>
and not having all the keys setup properly in the various config<br>
files.<br>
<br>
The other occurred when I updated to FC 15 (I believe) and the lirc<br>
module was not loading up properly and the remote was acting as a<br>
keyboard with only a few of the buttons being recognized (numbers and<br>
a few others). The newer versions of xorg will do that and I can't<br>
figure out a way to disable it aside from having lirc start up<br>
properly. It took me forever to figure out that was the issue and I<br>
had to use a real clumsy hack to resolve it so lirc loads up properly.<br>
<br>
It sounds like you definitely have the first issue and potentially<br>
have the second issue. Review these threads for details on how I<br>
resolved these issue and give yourself at least a full evening to do<br>
it.<br>
