Somewhere between r9301 and r9365 on my generic test box the imonmce addon became unreliable. Randomly on boot the mce remote would either work or not work. I can detect no pattern.

When the remote is working:

root ~ # ir-keytable -r
scancode 0x100007f = KEY_RIGHT (0x6a)
...
scancode 0x800ff468 = KEY_YELLOW (0x190)
Enabled protocols: RC-6

However on an occasion when it isn't working

root ~ # ir-keytable -r
^C^C^C

i.e. hung ssh

even though you can clearly see it is on:

root ~ # ps | grep -i ir
1193 root 0:00 ir-keytable -p rc6 -w /etc/rc_keymaps/imon_mce

To compound this as of r9725 even it happens to work most of the button mappings no longer operate. OK and direction keys work but little else including play/pause etc
