I have a MythTV front end running on a Via EPIA in the kitchen with a
remote.
It is a Streamzap USB remote. I bought it online for around $30.
I just followed the CVS instructions on the lirc.org website. You might
need to install some other programs, such as automake, but it generally
tells you (actually, I followed the steps on the Debian install on
madwifi.org to get the system ready).
After you install it, there is a configuration file for the remote which
is located on lirc.org or google it. There is also a startup script
that needs to run. I found that on the MythTV wiki. It gives you the
script and where/how to install it.
I might get rid of this and go with SageTV. I tried the 15 day demo and
really like it. I'm using a Hauppauge MediaMVP in the family and for
$90, it is cheap enough. I'm still thinking about this though.
