Hi Fastguy, this bug workaround is specifically for SAA7134-based cards, and it is only about LIRC being unable to grab the device, because HAL did it earlier. In any case, whatever the chipset you have, you may be having a driver problem, or a lirc misconfig (since you seem to have the basics

Mario: without LIRC, the remote acts as normal keypresses (like if it were the PC's keyboard), i.e. if you open a terminal and press the 1 key, you see a 1 char entered in the terminal, which is essentially useless. I've run mythTV in the past and I now run Elisa and both work fine (and require)

@Mario: yes, for saa7134 -based cards, the .fdi file is needed. The problem in the file is that I match the whole info.product string, so it works only for my particular card brand. It would somewhat more generic to just match the saa7134 IR substring, like this: match key=info.product

Yes, I know I am way too lazy. So after a little research I came up with a workaround and now my remote is back alive. Following laga's suggestion, you need to put the attached remote.fdi file in /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/ Also you need to modify the file to match your remote.
