[Bug 766647] [NEW] Natty - Windows MCE remote triggering events to lirc and as a keyboard making mythtv frontend unusable

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Due to a recent change in either X or the kernel, my media center remote
is now being picked up as a keyboard, as well as lirc. Therefore when
using mythtvfrontend, boxee, xbmc I the cursor moves twice for every
keypress.

I have temporarily resolved the issue by disabling lirc - but this means that the OK button which is mapped to keycode 352
is not picked up by X - I guess this is because it is over 255.

If I could remap 'ok' to the enter key - my problems would be solved -
but I dont have a clue how to do this.

I imagine a lot of other people will experience similar issues once 11.04 is released - so it would be useful 
if the re-mapping could be implemented as part of the ubuntu release.

Please feel free to re-assign this bug - I wasnt sure where to send it.
