Although I may have chosen a bad example, now that I think about it. A better test -- if you hold down the "mute" button, does the speaker system remain muted, or flip back and forth? (The experimental keyset should flip.)edit: after the screen is on again it is only one button that will work pressing any other button after that does not work, only after switching screen off and on.
Hmm. I'm not seeing this effect on my machines, but then I'm still not testing on CSSU yet. (And yeah, everybody here has been getting on my back about that.
) I suppose it could be something CSSU related, although I haven't seen similar complaints from other users.I have qtlockscreen installed (probably not of importance) but do notice the screen for pierogi tries to display in portrait before quickly changing to landscape .
And yeah, the whole "portrait-mode-pseudo-feature" aspect of CSSU is very annoying for us folks who do want to lock our apps into a particular orientation.
<petulant mode>I've even got "X-CSSU-Force-Landscape" set in Pierogi's .desktop file, but I guess it doesn't work nearly as well as the non-CSSU locking mechanism... You could try turning off "forced rotation", but of course nobody does that, because it is by far the most popular feature of CSSU, despite officially not being a feature of CSSU. </petulant mode>Let me nose around the CSSU changelogs a bit. Maybe they'll have a hint as to some UI updates that might cause this effect.

the reverse does not flip:
mute - sound on (and stays on).
The normal keyset doe not flip back and forth at all.
Ah, so the buttons don't even light up? (Or give you that "tactile feedback" vibration, if you've got that on.) I guess it is something UI-related, then.
Hmm. I'm not seeing this effect on my machines, but then I'm still not testing on CSSU yet. (And yeah, everybody here has been getting on my back about that.
I doubt qtlockscreen would do anything. (If it did, it should be affecting more apps than just Pierogi...) Then again, I suppose I should ask -- are you seeing this only-one-button-works-effect with any other apps?

I have changed the qtlockscreen theme to default now. I had it set on a portrait one and now when i switch the screen off and on again pierogi appears as it should (landscape).
no change in behaviour however.
(I also tried to turn of desktop rotation but something seems to have changed and setting desktop lock in gconf doesnt seem to have any effect)

no the buttons work fine, they light up and give the click sound, and stay lighted when keeping them pressed (I dont have tactile on)
Dunno how to connect that with switching the screen on and off, though.
I'll have to ponder this one a bit.

I bought a TV, but my brand isn't on the list.
I went to the website of the brand and checked the FAQ.
it says:
'What is the universal remote code ?'
This code is : 00BF
I seriously don't know what that even means....
The brand is MT-Logic
Model: LE-427118MT
www.mtlogic.com/LE-427118MT

I've got a couple of iffy config files for MT-Logic TVs; I'll add them in and see if they work for you. (Crossing my fingers here; I'm not finding a lot in my usual sources.)

It's possible, but I think that would be unlikely; the "customer code" (also known elsewhere as the "device code") shown in the Dune website is the actual code used within the NEC protocol itself for their devices. There are, however, dozens of different protocols out there, with many different mechanisms for identifying manufacturers and devices; moreover, there's no system for ensuring that a given device code is unique. In short, it's a real mess.
I'll throw the Dune command set into Pierogi too, though, just in case.

I think that a good idea to debug, would be to try checking N900's IR - if it *really* stop sending commands after first one ('till screen lock/unlock), or if it sends them, but for some reason, they're spoiled.

. dug out my old digicam and the led shows up on the screen So there is good news: the led always flashes when a button is pressed (and maybe that is the bad news as well)

Yes the power button always lights up and stays lit when i keep it pressed
edit: after the screen is on again it is only one button that will work pressing any other button after that does not work, only after switching screen off and on.
