If the remote control is connected via USB it will not be possible to set keycodes. At the moment I am trying to modify the input drivers to make this possible.<BR>
If you can set the kernel keycode, then of course you can get the X keycode by using xev. However you may find it easier to use the translation table I made:<BR>
<BR>
/* Kernel keycode -> X keycode table */<BR>
const unsigned int keycode_table[256] = {<BR>

I made this table for my project keyTouch (<A HREF="http://keytouch.sf.net">http://keytouch.sf.net</A>). If it is possible to the set keycodes for your remote control, then you can even use this program to bind actions to it. KeyTouch assigns kernel keycodes to scancodes, translates the kernel keycode to a X keycode and executes an action when that keycode is pressed under X. By using the keyTouch editor program you can make a so called keyboard file for your remote control and import this keyboard file in keyTouch to get working.<BR>
