Hello

I'm expanding my diskless setup to include a new frontend in my kitchen. I decided to try out the Snapstream Firefly Remote control and it arrived today. I have never used Lirc before, just a a wireless keyboard that plugs into the comm port on my living room frontend

I researched

///usr/share/doc/lirc/remotes in firefox, but I don't see the snapstream firefly remote listed.

I read on the mythtv site and it points to the ati driver
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Snapstream_Firefly Effective Kernel 2.6.27 and higher - Themodule lirc_atiusb has been deprecated. You must use the userspace driver atilibusb instead.

Code:
uname -r
returns 2.6.23-chr-4 revision

On koppmyth wiki I found this but it's old too old
http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=ATIRemote

In this forum I found reference to a R5.5 patch last year

I also found some interesting detailed evidence of customization of the firefly remote.

Ideally I would like to control the myth application with the remote and that's it. I don't have a tuner. Could someone point me in the right direction to adding the remote to a working
R5.5 diskless install, what's currently required?

Thanks

Please close out this post. I upgraded to R6 and it auto detected the Firefly Remote ...)
