[PROBLEM] LIRC repeats

[Bignumbas]

I tried for several days to fix this problem.
Finally came across a posting on Instructables Where a guy was putting a pi into an Altoid tin with Xbian installed for a home media center. (cause you can )
Find it here:

and also
http://www.msldigital.com/pages/support-for-remote

edit the file: /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf
nano /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf
Comment out the line: LIRCD_ARGS="-u"

lircd -u, --uinput
Enable automatic generation of Linux input events. lircd will open /dev/input/uinput and inject key events to the Linux kernel. The key code depends on the name that was given a button in the lircd config file, e.g. if the button is named KEY_1, the '1' key code will be generated. You will find a complete list of possible button names in /usr/include/linux/input.h.

From the explanation it seems to me that when you press a key it injects another keypress via the kernel. Kinda like a feedback loop?

I had tried everything before this delays, ir-keytables etc, etc.
The mystifying thing was that the remote worked in every other raspberry linux I have.

Cheers

Hope this helps.
