   Please allow me to observe that irexec is working fine with my remote
now, but only as long as irexec is loaded from /etc/rc.local, that is
BEFORE the X system is started.
   So I must insist that a solution should be found that every remote
control like cx88 or such should not be taken over by evdev driver. In
this case we must consider this as a bug. Users should be able to run
irexec in their desktop sessions.
