Thanks for your help so far.. As part of dmesg, I get the following only:
usbcore: registered new driver appleir drivers/usb/input/appleir.c: v1.1:USB Apple MacMini IR Receiver driver (so no input/class listing) Applier module is loaded, but alas, no input device exists.. Is there anything else I'm missing? I'm definitely using the patches, and EVDEV has been built into the kernel but it seems the device is not being recognised. Is it possible I have a slightly different hardware version or something? I've just rebuilt my kernel again with a fresh load of patches, and am still a bit confused as to why its not working!

There is no Apple remote. Is the kernel patched with ir.patch? Is the appleir driver loaded? If not, you should patch the kernel and rebuild with CONFIG_USB_APPLEIR=m in the kernel config and load the module with modprobe appleir. After this, I get these messages in the kernel log: input: Apple Mac mini infrared remote control driver as /class/input/input7 usbcore: registered new driver appleir drivers/usb/input/appleir.c: v1.1:USB Apple MacMini IR Receiver driver I can see the remote in lsinput: /dev/input/event2 bustype : BUS_USB vendor : 0x5ac product : 0x8240 version : 272 name : "Apple Mac mini infrared remote c" phys : "/input0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_REP Regards, Tino ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
