Has anyone used LIRC to control an Open Office Impress presentation? pretty much "Next" and "Back" is the only thing it needs to do. And just for the record, a "generic" remote will work with most laptop IR ports, right? (Radio Shack Itza remote and Toshiba Satalite 2800 or 4600) Carl K |

I have not tried but was looking at my Vaio the other day and the thought crossed my mind. Tony |
