[[Linux] How to install flirc software and update firmware from the command line]

I think the idea is that we would like support on how to fix the problem.  Essentially, this product is broken on Ubuntu and this disclaimer should be made.  I ditched Flirc and went with a wireless mini keyboard.  It works great.

I have the same problem, John_T.  Trying to figure it out and would appreciate any help...

[Mythbuntu and GE Universal Remote]

So I had enormous troubles getting the GUI to work in mythbuntu 12.0.4, I tried running as root and kept getting a QT error.  So, I transferred over to my windows machine and programmed the remote using the keyboard.  I then transfered Flirc back to my frontend mythtv and it isn't working.  Worked fine on my Windows 7 machine.

 

Thoughts?  I'm ready to return this device.

 

 

here is what I get when I try to run from CLI:

 

QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.
