I am having similar problems and can confirm this bug. I leave my computer on days on end. After a restart there is a split second delay after each button press on the remote where mythtv completely freezes. After a few days it turns into a full second to 2 second delay where mythtv freezes.
It only happens when I press buttons on the remote. Even if the buttons dont do anything. If I use the keyboard mythtv works fine. -- lirc usage in mythtv causes excessive gnome-screensaver usage, slows to a crawl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/306302 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
