Catching up on several points here....
> This is correct, mythtv uses ~/.mythtv/lircrc rather than ~/.lircrc.
I have a ~/.lircrc but not a ~/.mythtv/lircrc. Looking through the source code,
I'm fairly sure MythTV is looking for it in ~/.lircrc. This is corroborated by
the observation that when I edit ~/.lircrc, MythTV responds to those edits.

As far as I can tell, I don't have a screensaver installed, but I disabled
screen blanking/sleeping in the XFCE settings GUI. I also ran `xset s off` and
`xset -dpms`, then restarted mythfrontend, but the problem remained.

It runs Xorg.
> Would it be possible to add a patch providing some logging?
I build from source, so I'll look into adding some logging around the LIRC code,
including the part Roger noted where it ignores events if the screen is asleep.
It might be the weekend before I have time for that.
Thanks again all.
