<div>I did a clean install of Mythbuntu 11.10/Myth 0.25 and got lirc working by setting "LOAD_MODULES=false". <div><br></div><div>Everything works but I noticed a slight delay (0.1 sec) in the response to my remote button presses.

<div><br></div><div>irw now only reports events when remote buttons are released. On my old Mythbuntu 10.x/Myth 0.24 system irw reports events as soon as buttons are pressed down. <br><br></div><div>I'm using the same lirc config files on both systems and have no idea how I could configure lirc to use key up/down events.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Is this a consequence of Mythbuntu not loading the kernel modules ? Or a new 'feature' of Lirc ? I did see something once about a "lirc --release patch" (not the easiest thing to google) but no-one else seems to be commenting on this behaviour. Is it just me ?</div>

My current understanding is that you have the in kernel code (a couple buttons will "just work" in Myth now) and then there is a bridge to lirc where you can make what buttons you want to a key table. So it goes kernel -> keytable -> lirc. You should be able to see the key down and key up events with ir-keytable. My guess is the lirc keymap you are using is not the one you want, for Gentoo you would make changes to <span class="st">/etc/lirc/lircd.conf</span> to map the hex codes ir events to the buttons<br>
