Hey Phill,
You know how much of a noob I am, but I bought a Microsoft MCE remote
(version 2 I think), which comes with a USB dongle and blasters to
control other equipment, and I have it all setup really easy. I
initially set it up on Ubuntu Feisty and more recently I have put it
to use on my mythbuntu FE.
Just spend the $50 and grab one of those from your local PC store.
(FTR, I bought mine from Global Computers on Adelaide St in Brisbane).
Cheers,
Whytey
