Hi,
   I am trying to find a solution to make my remote (PixelView PlayTV 
Pro) to control DirectFB program.Following is the modified 
/etc/lircd.conf file. I tried to make directfb to respond to remote 
control rays. But i am not succeeded. Help me where i am going wrong.

# /etc/lircd.conf file....

# brand:             PixelView
# model:             PlayTV Pro remote control
#
# supported devices:
#   works both with home-brew and TV card receiver (use lirc-0.6.6 or 
better)
#

      end codes

end remote

As far as input drivers in DirectFB is concerned, the drivers are 
invoked by default, say for example keyboard and mouse drivers. So 
also "lirc" input driver must be invoked by default. Or else do we 
require to invoke the driver manually ? Is the "lirc" input driver of 
DirectFB is a server daemon program similar to server program of 
"LIRC" package ? lircd is a server daemon program of LIRC package 
which respond client request (remote control rays). Like wise is the 
"lirc" input driver of DirectFB a server program ? Will it respond to 
any remote control provided with necessary /etc/lircd.conf file ?
