If you find a scriptable way to do so, we'd be glad to adapt. ** Changed in: lirc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: New => Incomplete -- [Hardy] Lirc devinput (linux-input-layer) broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204960 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
