I've had some really good success today.

I spent about an hour and seemingly have my 2 pis working the way I want
them.   I was surprised that Jivelite really doesn't care that there's
nothing connected to the HDMI.  I just plugged in a keyboard and did a
blind initialization by pressing a few keys.  Then Jivelite was happy
and the keyboard worked for control.  Spacebar does a play/pause
toggle!

>From there the big deal was figuring out how to save the Jivelite
config.  It turns out that just doing a PCP backup from the main screen
works.  Also, under the Jivelite settings, if you update the autostart
setting, it saves the config to the SD card.  Either one seems
equivalent.  With that done, you can reboot the pi and Jivelite's
configuration comes back without having to do a keyboard setup again.

I took a FLIRC I have in another system and programmed 3 keys (pause,
next, previous) with an existing remote and it just worked.  Awesome!

I've got a couple of FLIRCs ordered and will install and configure them
soon.  Thank you very much for the pointers and keys to making this work
for me.  :)

Brian.
