Although I have read that is fairy difficult to configure, and things alike that on wikis, but was so easy at here, I think I have luck and it detected it immediately and without any problem, here the easy setup.

sudo apt-get install lirc lirc-modules-source module-assistant

Now on configuration

Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all) -> None -> DONE!

To test out the controller, is

irw

while doing this, click the keys in your controller and they will appear if it was detected correctly. Here, all were detected.

If you want to make it work with KDE and KDE apps,

apt-get install kdelirc

And configure the keys in System Settings.

Engineering student, I like to enjoy my free time playing videogames and playing guitar, I love server administration. I enjoy testing different OS, but my best is on Linux and later OS X, and I'm not an stupid *BSD and Windows user, just im rusty. I also like reading books, listening music, traveling, and as you can see at this site, help people with problems that I can solve, enjoy. I'm also looking for an online job on UNIX system administration, so if you know about one, just comment here! ;)
