Sounds like it would be pretty cool, It might be worthwhile to add some instructions and descriptions (additional software/remotes) on how you could get started using it (people love links)

Hi, I'm trying to use lirc and songbird together on Linux but I can't find how ... has anyone tested the addon on linux ?
On my distro (gentoo), lircd doesn't seem to listen on inet socket by default so I ran lircd manually :
lircd --listen=127.0.0.1:8765 -n

Then when I start songbird, lircd shows :
lircd-0.8.5[4500]: accepted new client from 127.0.0.1
lircd-0.8.5[4500]: initializing '/dev/usb/hiddev0'
That's a good sign, isn't it ?

I suppose that the problem comes from my config file .lircrc. I added an entry as I did for mplayer :
begin
    button = PLAY
    prog = SongBird
    config = PlayPause
    repeat = 2
end

But still nothing happens when I press the PlayPause button of my remote ... Have I done something wrong here ?

Thanks,

Laurent
