Hi,

I have the same remote but it's not working after taking the following
steps. Please let me know if I miss anything.

1. download 0.8.6 src code, add { USB_DEVICE(0x105a, 0x2000) } to
lirc_mceusb.c.
2. run 'setup.sh' and select usb->mceusb, make, make install.
3. modprobe lirc_mceusb; /etc/init.d/lircd restart

After that, 'lsusb' still does not recognize the USB, which I guess is OK.
However, 'irrecord --driver=mceusb myremote' fails, claiming only "default"
driver is supported. 'irrecord myremote' gives error with opening /dev/lirc.

Thanks,
Wilsonh
