Ubuntu 10.04 Server x86 nstalled, lirc doesn't pick up the remote after install, and adding the device manually to lirc_mceusb.c doesn't help either. As scottuss says, I have the same problem.

I have the same setup, Boxee with the Maplin remote. Only problem is, very recently, for no apparent reason the remote doesn't work. irw doesn't show any key presses and Boxee can't seem to use it. I changed batteries, rebooted, checked lirc etc but nothing seems to work. Any ideas? Thanks again mate! This worked for me, thanks! I have the same setup, Boxee with the Maplin remote.
