Chapter 1. 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.
