Introduction &irkick; is a background server that provides the 'glue' between the operating system and your KDE applications for the purpose of controlling KDE applications with your infrared remote controls. It has a configuration tool, which may be accessed either by the KDE Control Center or directly from the menu of &irkick;. Requirements For the KDELirc framework to be utilised you must have setup a LIRC on your KDE machine. If it is properly set up, the &irkick; icon in the system tray will light up red. If not, it will be grey and crossed out. For more information about LIRC, visit their website at http://www.lirc.org. Using &irkick; &irkick; provides one main function: When a button on a remote control is pressed, it will temporarily become lit up. Aside from this &irkick; does little for the user directly aside from telling them of the activity of their remote controls. Using the right-mouse-button menu, you can configure the KDE infrared remote control framework.
