Whoops. Done. Most of the pages are directly editable, so if you see any other typos you should be able to access them directly. Cheers. -- Ned Scott 19:45, 5 November 2011 (EDT)

Hi Guys, How do I add this page to the HOWTO section? It took me about a year to figure this out and I think it could be a valuable contribution to the XBMC Manual. Kind Regards Cyber7 03:27, 3 January 2012 (EST)

HOWTO: Install XBMC on a Moneual Labs MonCaso 312 HTPC case

Hi Guys

Over the last couple of days I have re-built my mono 312 and the following steps get you going on XBMC:

Installed XBMC FRESH and ran the following commands: apt-get update wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/lirc/lirc_0.9.0~pre1.orig.tar.bz2 tar -jxvf lirc_0.9.0~pre1.orig.tar.bz2 apt-get install libtool automake autoconf dialog cd lirc-0.9.0-pre1/ ./configure --with-driver=mplay2 make && make install Changed the paths in /etc/init.d/lirc (from /usr/ to /usr/local/) vi /etc/init.d/lirc :1,$ s/\/usr\//\/usr\/local\//g Changed /etc/lirc/hardware.conf to have ONLY: REMOTE_DRIVER="mplay2" REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/ttyUSB0" Edit the file /etc/lirc/lircd.conf as follow : begin remote name Moncaso_312 bits 8 eps 30 aeps 100 one 0 0 zero 0 0 gap 107899 toggle_bit_mask 0x0 begin codes PwrOff 0x41 PwrOn 0x55 Hotkey 0x5A DVD 0x14 Menu 0x5C Sleep 0x58 Rec 0x11 Play 0x09 Eject 0x5E Rew 0x0D Pause 0x05 FF 0x15 Prev 0x1A Stop 0x01 Next 0x1E Full_Screen 0x0C Ratio 0x10 Task_Switcher 0x17 Movie 0x40 Music 0x56 Photo 0x45 TV 0x46 OK 0x42 Up 0x19 Left 0x54 Right 0x43 Down 0x1D Back 0x0B Exit 0x1F Mute 0x4A More 0x4B Open 0x04 Vol+ 0x0A Vol- 0x0E CH+ 0x12 CH- 0x16 1 0x4D 2 0x4E 3 0x4F 4 0x50 5 0x51 6 0x52 7 0x53 8 0x03 9 0x07 0 0x4C Quick_Guide 0x08 Timer 0x18 end codes end remote I then rebooted the machine and open a ssh console and run irw, I get the keystrokes! yahoo!!! at this stage!!! Added the following keymap to the /usr/share/xbmc/system/Lircmap.xml file and WALLA - everything works. <remote device="Moncaso_312"> <play>Play</play> <pause>Pause</pause> <stop>Stop</stop> <forward>FF</forward> <reverse>Rew</reverse> <left>Left</left> <right>Right</right> <up>Up</up> <down>Down</down> <select>OK</select> <pageplus>Ch+</pageplus> <pageminus>Ch-</pageminus> <back>Back</back> <menu>Menu</menu> <title>Hotkey</title> <info>More</info> <skipplus>Next</skipplus> <skipminus>Prev</skipminus> <display>Aspect</display> <start>Home</start> <record>Record</record> <volumeplus>Vol+</volumeplus> <volumeminus>Vol-</volumeminus> <mute>Mute</mute> <power>PwrOn</power> <myvideo>Movie</myvideo> <mymusic>Music</mymusic> <mypictures>Photo</mypictures> <mytv>TV</mytv> <one>1</one> <two>2</two> <three>3</three> <four>4</four> <five>5</five> <six>6</six> <seven>7</seven> <eight>8</eight> <nine>9</nine> <zero>0</zero> <obc5e>Eject</obc5e> </remote>
