Sorry if this is the wrong place to post.

I am running an up to date Hardy with lirc - 0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7 installed and I have no support for my remote - no device is being created.

I have the ASUS MyCinema-P7131 Analog which uses the same PC-39 remote as the Hybrid, the TV / radio functions fine, yet no device is being created for the remote.

From what I read in the post https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/190018/comments/5 above this should be working, I have posted in the forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=798593 with 0 responses.

What am I missing? Is this a problem elsewhere, udev or hal, what can I do to try to resolve it, as every thread I have found pretty much leaves me looking for the device in the output from cat /proc/bus/input/devices which doesn't list the remote.

I read somewhere about a patch, should I need to apply a patch given this is supposed to be fixed with lirc - 0.8.3~pre1-0ubuntu7?

Again sorry if this is not the right place to be asking, however I am a bit lost on this.
