Great application! However , I have similar problem like Digbum13. RaeMote was not shown in the widget list. I can only run through terminal.

RĉMote 1.2 has just been released and will land in Extras-Testing soon. It includes a fix for the graphical glitch where the button highlight would not go away and appear "stuck".

If RĉMote is not shown in the widget list, simply re-start your device.

Sounds very cool...since i lost my iMac remote for 2nd time...but can't get it to appear in the widget list...

python /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/raemote.py & seems to do the job and make it appear....but i have to run the command every time?...

Should I have something else also installed or just the Raemote? thx and kudos for the development!

Thanks a million! This widget will be used like a mother.. well a lot! Just brainstorming here but is there any chance of getting the remote app from iphone/ipod touch to N900 (the one that uses wifi connection)? Are there copyright issues or something? Maybe with some plugins that might work? (I don't really know much of these things..) That would be the greatest thing ever though this will also do just fine..

I think what you mean is the DACP protocol? There is an implementation (and detailed information about the protocol) on this page (for an Android app):

http://dacp.jsharkey.org/

Also, I've found a client implementation on Ruby, which should theoretically work on the N900 as command-line app already:

http://gitorious.com/ruby-dacp

(There might even be a Qt-based UI for this already in the "qtstereo" directory inside the Git repo, but I haven't checked it out. Just a pointer in case anyone wants to try implementing something like this - I personally don't use iTunes for music playback )

Yep that's the one. Is someone able to turn that into a working N900 app? Or is there one already? I have no skill in these things but I imagine this would be a simple thing to do..(?)

So it seems previous attempts of mine to get Irreco or qtirreco to work (never did) have really done in my IR transmitter, assuming it worked in the first place. I can not get Rĉmote to work either.

I've tried:

1.) Rebooting

2.) Deleting Rĉmote and running apt-get remove --purg lirc (I get this message: Package lirc is not installed, so not removed).

3.) apt-get clean, apt-get autoclean, apt-get remove, apt-get autoremove

I ran python /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/raemote.py in terminal and got this message:

Code:

Any help appreciated.

Edit /etc/lircd.conf with a text editor (e.g. vim) as root and remove all lines in it except for the file that includes the RaeMote remote definition (you'll spot it easily). Save the file and then restart RaeMote and it should work again

The culprit here is QtIrreco an Irreco, as they simply append lines to the /etc/lircd.conf file, but fail to remove these lines when they get uninstalled, resulting in a broken lircd configuration.
