Has anybody had any luck using a Windows Media Center compatible remote (and IR receiver) to control the launching of programs on Jetson?
I tried :
sudo apt-get install lirc
Selecting “Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all)” as the remote control, and “None” for the IR transmitter
The terminal shows :
Preconfiguring packages …
Selecting previously unselected package lirc.

Then I do :
sudo service lirc restart
But I get :

cat /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

I’m not even sure that it is registering the IR receiver, because it doen not show up in the list of devices, and irw does not respond to any inputs from the remote.
