First off kudos to the creator of this, i had previously set up a myth box the old fashioned way and when my hdd crashed on me a week ago i cringed at the thought of having to redo my myth box, however i gave this a try and got it about 90% working in one night, amazing....my problem now is my remote. I remember having a lot of problems getting the remote working during my other myth install, if someone who has this card/remote working please let me know what they did?
One final off topic question, how can i run mythbackend again?

Thanks for everything

The source for LIRC is in /usr/src, you'll need to recompile LIRC for your remote. If you install-i686-l(or 586 if you have a 586 class CPU), this will install MythTV w/ native LIRC. As for starting the backend /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart

to run the setup agian you run mythtv-setup.

As for the lirc stuff. Just putting the files in the right place will not make it work with your card. LIRC on knoppmyth is compiled for the hauppage remote. you will have to recompile it for the leadtek remote.

as long as you installed the -l script then you don't need irxevent. just modify the ~/.mythtv/licrc file to reflect the buttons on your remote.

i decided to give the native lirc a shot, i installed the -l package with no problems, i put my new lircrc file in /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc, i recompiled lirc, then i rebooted, still nothing happens in myth when i presson the remote though....irw is still working normally....arr this is driving me crazy, its like im so close

I have had similar issues with getting irxevent to work properly. In the end, it turned out that there were some hidden control characters in the lircrc file. I ended up creating a new lircrc file, and it magically worked!
