I have a similar setup. I use my Myth box both as a Linux desktop and
for MythTV. The desktop runs on vt9 and Mythfrontend runs on vt8.
Can I configure LIRC to switch to the MythTV VT when I press the "power"
button on my Hauppauge remote? Do you happen to have an example .lircrc?
Best regards,
Patrik
