Hi, At the following location you can find a userland daemon to handle Apple IR receiver events: http://fnop.net/~rpaulo/priv/freebsd/aird.tgz If you have a MacBook, an iMac or a MacMini running FreeBSD, try compiling this little daemon and then try using it. Finally, report to me any success or failure :-) I use the Apple remote to control mpd (ports/audio/musicpd), but you can use this anyway you like. As an example, my .xinitrc contains: aird -f /dev/uhid1 -P "mpc toggle" -F "mpc next" -B "mpc prev" -U "mixer vol +2" -D "mixer vol -2" -p ~/.aird.pid -M gmpc uhid1 is: uhid1: <Apple Computer, Inc. IR Receiver, class 0/0, rev 2.00/1.10, addr 2> on uhub2 Have fun! -- Rui Paulo
