> * Pressing 4 should prompt for the Parental Pin, but instead highlights a

Can you connect a keyboard and see if you can reproduce the issue? I
suspect an issue with the remote/lirc. I know that in some modes, the
numbers will operate as though you were using the numberpad with numlock
off... so 1 would be end, 2 would be down, 3 would be pg down, and 4 would
be left. Any chance this is what you are seeing?
