Or any LIRC capable remote, for that matter. Searching on their website produced no results.

Granted, it's easy enough to instal the LIRC packages, but it would be nice if it were already included.

yes LIRC is included in Ultra X Linux and I think I seen a tech show that boxee supports the Microsoft remote.

So, would this mean that Ultra XLinux would offer out of the box Support van Microsoft remote keyboard and remote?

or will I need to configure it myself?

It hasn't been tested, to offer support for something that doesnt exist isnt good business. LIRC is there, so is boxee, the capabilities are there to do it. as far as having to configure the remote buttons and what not, not sure. Try it out.

I guess someone has to ask- can you run this on the PS3?

With Boxee pre-installed as with this release? (well done, by the way!)
