I believe to have seen the MCE remote in a list of remotes for MythTV. Since a certain relation between MythTV and Linux seems to eist, it should be possible to do *something* with your remote.
The keyboard... no idea. Keyboards in general are supported I suppose (really helps the usability :wink: ), so the querty part will probably bahave decent. The rest?

Ah.. I didn't ask that question quite right. 
If you have an IrMan, you can basically use ANY remote with it, using LIRC. It'll just pick up whatever IR signals are being transmited, and you can do with them what you like.
I'm after knowing is can I use the MCE USB reciever dongle with my MCE remote and keyboard under linux
There you go. That's what I should have asked.

Hi James
I really think you need to check that one out on a linux support forum as to my knowledge everyone using MP uses windows XP Home/Pro.

I don't know if it makes any difference, but MPC-VR is open source too, so that might make it easier to integrate if you can access the code to see what it's doing.
