IRKey Re,ote Issue
Couple of quick questions. Should the IRKey card reboot the Pi when plugging it in? Also, when using the remote, sometimes XBMC will act like it is getting a bunch of signals from the IRKey, when no buttons are being pushed on the remote. I ordered two, but only have as I gave one away to a buddy, so I can't compare with the other on. Thanks in advance for your help.

Plugging in the IRKey should not reboot the Pi.
We have seen cases where the IRKey detects spurious button-pushes. This seems to be related to fluorescent light shining on the IRKey.

Appreciate the response. No fluorescent lighting is in the room, in fact it does it in a dark room. And yes, when plugging the key in or out, causes a reboot.
Any other ideas?
Thanks
