[mythtv-users] Remote Not working In Mythtv

[David Phillips]

Wayne,

I do not have a Mythtv directory of files in
Mythtv/home. Is this a problem? I loaded the mythtv
suite through Synaptic. Everything in the mythtv works
excpet the remote as I stated before. Should I place
the lircrc file in another directory?

Thanks
David
