Public bug reported: The GYR4101US Gyration Media Center Remote is not currently supported by the hid-gyration driver. The device has USB ID 0c16:0008. Without hid- gyration support, many of the buttons on the remote do not function.
I've modified the kernel source code to include the required change and submitted a patch upstream as well. See http://www.spinics.net/lists /linux-input/msg08859.html. With this change, all buttons function properly. I'm not sure if it's proper to submit a bug report to Ubuntu for this, but thought I would in the interest of possibly getting the patch into Lucid sooner (instead of waiting for the upstream kernel to implement it and later pull that). For reference, the kernel version in use is 2.6.32-22-generic (linux- image-2.6.32-22-generic=2.6.32-22.33). This bug report will show that I'm using staging drivers; while true, this problem exists whether I use the staging drivers or not, and the fix is the same either way. The upstream kernel will exhibit the same behavior, as it too lacks the necessary USB IDs to properly recognize the remote as a gyration remote in hid-gyration (the patch above is against upstream). I've attached the patch here as well.
