I am using the module-lirc plugin to change volume using IR remote control,
principally with MythTV on an HTPC. lircrc setup is fine and Volume up/down and
Mute buttons work as expected.  However there is no on-screen display, as there
is when using the keyboard.

IR remote is SoundGraph iMON Pad VFD. This uses the imon kernel driver, which
replaced lirc_imon from kernel 2.6.32. *Without* lircd running the Volume /
Mute buttons still work including OSD, as well as the pad keys and mouse
emulation buttons surrounding it.  This must be coming straight from the kernel
module, using the same interface as "real" keyboard / mouse.

This Ubuntu bug report covers the same ground:-
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/481213.

My distro is Fedora 15, current kernel 2.6.40.4-5.fc15.x86_64.

Thanks,
Andrew
