Comment 12 for bug 318261

All of the buttons on the remote seem to work properly at the input layer, i.e. I can see the events with input-events(1).

*Most* of the buttons also trigger events visible with lshal -m:

perseus:[...25.90/debian/build/xine/src] lshal -m

Therefore, I don't think the problem is with the kernel or hal. Moving back to X.
