Yes, I will. I'll submit it to the lirc people as soon as I have done some more testing and the autorepeat issues are solved.

No, there is no problem at all! The point is that the key-up event is not generated *before* I release the key. Therfore the hauppauge remote control works perfectly with the old driver. Do not change this! :-) Oliver -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
