Results. Eventually I got to it, did update & upgrade as you suggested and it now works fine. Thanks

BTW, while searching for a solution I came to understand the mceusb is now part of the kernel input subsystem, and that lirc is not really necessary anymore. There's a tool called ir-keytable and a procedure to set up an ir remote without lirc here. Is there a reason xbian continues to use lirc? Isn't it more simple to use this ir-keytables?

Thanks,
Dan

Yours is a specific case, lirc is necessary for GPIO IR receivers.

I didn't know anything about mceusb as I'm GPIO, likely it is the same for mk01 and other Xbian developers (not having that hardware).

Great information, thanks for providing your resolution.
