SOLVED

Hi all.
First Mythbuntu box build. Bought the PVR-150 MCE Kit with the remote. Can't figure out which remote configuration to select under infrared devices in the Mythbuntu Control Center. Some posts point to the Media Center Remote New Version or Old Version. But neither of those seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mine worked fine when selecting the windows mediacenter remote. But there are different kinds of 150 remotes, so you should check the chipset. The chipset is important for the driver choice. So google on that.

Thanks for the help. I did some more digging and you are right there are like a million versions of that remote. I discovered the one that comes with the PVR-150 MCE kit works with the Windows Media Center Remote (New version) option in mythbuntu (using the lirc_mceusb2). I had tried it before and couldn't get it going but I tried it again last night and now it works. Go figure. Anyway , anyone with the pvr-150 mce kit use the Windows Media Center Remote option.
