Xbian Beta 2, HoneyPi IR & HP Remote: Working Script!

[caintgetrite]

I recently bought a HoneyPi GPIO IR and HP Control Center Remote bundle from Rasptools.

I emailed the seller about Xbian Beta 2 compatibility with this setup. We were in email communication quite a bit yesterday. He went through and wrote a custom script to make the HoneyPi and this remote work perfectly with Xbian Beta 2. Here is the info for those who have either bought this or are thinking of buying it:

Xbian Installation Instructions - Tested on XBian Beta 2
 
===============================================
Automatic Installation Instructions for XBian
===============================================
To enable the IR Receiver Module  you need to log in to your Raspberry PI via a remote shell
under the "Root" Account and type the following commands at the command prompt:
 
wget http://patches.rasptools.com/xbian/install.sh
chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh
 
(Your Pi will now Reboot and your Remote should become active after boot)

Give this a try if you want to use this combo with your Raspberry Pi and Xbian!
