thx for your reply Andreas i tried just running it but i get: irrecord - application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc Copyright (C) 1998,1999 Christoph Bartelmus(li...@ba...) irrecord: could not init hardware (lircd running ? --> close it, check perm= issions) so then i tried running it as sudo. I get Hold down an arbitrary button. irrecord: gap not found, can't continue i did press a button and pointed at receiver. so i tried sudo chmod a+x /etc/input/event7 but i get the first error when i run as normal user again. so then i tried sudo chmod 777 /etc/input/event7 same thing still. and when i wrote /vid/radio0 in last mail i actually meant /dev/radio0 i mu= sta been half asleep. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

i tried=20 sudo lircd --driver=3Ddev/input --device=3D/dev/input/event7 -n i run irw in another terminal and i get nothing whien i press buttons. So i installed and tried inputlircd like you suggested. sudo inputlircd /dev/input/event7 then i try irw still nothing I installed the input-utils package then i ran sudo lsinput i get this: /dev/input/event7 bustype : BUS_PCI vendor : 0x109e product : 0x36e version : 1 name : "bttv IR (card=3D70)" phys : "pci-0000:05:07.0/ir0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_REP so then i did lspci 05:07.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capt= ure (rev 11) the thing that im not sure about is that the first command gives phys : = "pci-0000:05:07.0/ir0" and the second gives 05:07.0 so hopefully this means that my video capture = device also does the ir events. If it does then this part should be working= perfect. i changed my driver to card =3D139 now because it seems to work with tv car= d and it gives better radio reception. still isnt making a dif to the remot= e though. Although it seems to have removed my remote device so ill have to= change driver back later. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

not sure, but I guess that you just can use lircd without config file (and irrecord)... did you tried: lircd --driver=dev/input --device=/dev/input/event7 -n and in another terminal: irw do you see any keycodes now? (I once used the special keys of my mouse with dev/input and I think that I did not use a config file and irrecord) PS: in my feisty repository I can find a package inputlircd witch promises exactly what you want...
