OK, the wiki still refers to rc_client. I suppose as an upstanding
holder of a sourceforge account maybe i should fix it, once i figure
this out.
Ironically, though I've been using lirc for about 5 years, I may have
a remote control situation that doesn't include any extra hardware or
software on the computer side soon. jp1-programmable remote + ir
keyboard interface I'm already using. We'll see if that works at all. It
could prove difficult to record the signals from the keyboard, or they
may have some nuance that the rcu810 can't duplicate.

Well I'm using the default skin at 800x600 and I do have a games menu
but i don't have a tv menu because i disabled it. So it shouldn't be
because there's not room for it. I'll fiddle around with things and see
what i can find.
Thanks for the tips.
