Does Windows media centre remote work with fedora core 3


I am about to buy a window media centre remote, I dual boot with media centre, and wonder if it compatible with the lirc program or whatever that comes with fedora core 3. I am a complete n00b. Any help would be appreciated.

If you dual Boot anyway it isnt going to hurt to buy it

However check the HCL

i'd myself prefer to buy a Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS Pro or similare,

they come with a remote , which can be used to control media playpack in widnows
and would i suspect have better support in Linux.

Plus a really great sounding soundcard never hurt anyone.


I also recently saw a Card/system on the nvidia Site.

Package includes
Nvidia fx5200 external controls and a remote control for multimedia system including media Centre.
