|Description= The Asrock ION PCs come with a remote control. This is compatible with the Microsoft remote, and in Windows 7 (and possibly Vista) the .reg files used to reconfigure the MS remote will also work with the Asrock remote. The .reg files will not work in Windows XP because Windows XP does not detect the remote as an eHome device and install the eHome driver. It is possible the eHome drive could be installed with suitable modifications to irbus.inf (see the review of the HP remote above) but so far this has not been explored. | |Description= The Asrock ION PCs come with a remote control.

Asrock ION330HT with remote and internal CIR receiver compatible with any MCE remote. | |||
From Ubuntu 11.10 and up-to 12.10 including 12.04LTS getting the internal CIR + remote to work with Lirc + XBMC is rather a simple process. | |||
<source lang="bash"> | |||
sudo apt-get install lirc | |||
</source> | |||
If LIRC is already installed do: | |||
<source lang="bash"> | |||
sudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc | |||
</source> | |||
Remote control configuration: | |||
* Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all) | |||
IR transmitter, if present: | |||
* None | |||
Next change the default configuration to work with the Nuvoton remote | |||
<source lang="bash"> | |||
sudo nano /etc/lirc/hardware.conf | |||
</source> | |||
Change the following 3 lines from: | |||
<source lang="xml"> | |||
REMOTE="Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all)" | |||
REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev mceusb" | |||
REMOTE_DRIVER="" | |||
</source> | |||
Into the following | |||
<source lang="xml"> | |||
REMOTE="Nuvoton Transceivers/Remotes" | |||
REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev nuvoton-cir" | |||
REMOTE_DRIVER="default" | |||
</source> | |||
Save changes with {{keypress|ctrl|O}} to save file & {{keypress|ctrl|X}} and close nano. | |||
Restart LIRC to apply the changes | |||
<source lang="bash"> | |||
sudo service lirc restart | |||
</source> | |||
