There are revised instruction on the wiki and a pre-built version of the driver you can download.
Quote: f you are using a Hauppauge remote control via LIRC, you will notice that the system tends to "miss" a lot of clicks on the remote and/or is very slow in responding. To fix this you will need to replace a driver. There are two choices: Rebuild from source or download an updated version of the driver from this page.
To download from this page
1. Download the file "ir-kbd-i2c.ko.r5f27" from this page. To do this, click on the "attachments" link at the bottom of this page.
2. Backup your current version of "ir-kbd-i2c.ko", ie mv /lib/modules/2.6.18-chw-13/kernel/drivers/media/video/ir-kbd-i2c.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-chw-13/kernel/drivers/media/video/ir-kbd-i2c.ko.orig
3. copy the file that you just downloaded to /lib/modules/2.6.18-chw-13/kernel/drivers/media/video/ir-kbd-i2c.ko
4. reboot and your good to go.

Very cool. I think that qualifies as the contribution of the day! 
BTW - You way want to add the checksum(s) to your posts for safety.

@marc.aronson - your file and instruction are tremendously appreciated! I followed them and my gray remote works like a charm like it did w/ R5D1.
Thank you again for your contribution!
a few keywords: R5F27 gray remote broken fix work

phew, I thought I was going crazy!
I don't really believe I need the drivers, but something seems to think I do cause it slows down and chunks on it for a good while during startup.
Code: dmesg | grep saa7134
saa7134: Unknown symbol get_key_pinnacle_color
saa7134: Unknown symbol get_key_pinnacle_grey
saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol saa7134_ts_register
saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol saa7134_set_gpio
saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol saa7134_ts_qops
saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol saa7134_i2c_call_clients
saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol saa7134_ts_unregister
I'll give Marc's version a shot.

It's probably the modprobe lines in /etc/init.d/KnoppMyth-tv which the sed command above comments out.

Great stuff, thank you all. Marc's modified driver did the trick to get me back to quick boot times and functioning front-end. My signature is up to date, but I didn't know how to verify the required drivers by my hardware.
I have to say it is a pleasure to be a part of such an active community. I look forward to the opportunity to help others here someday.

...wonder if Marc's driver should be included in the distro via a patch? The scope of this problem is unclear to me.

I don't know that the changes would be desirable in all situations. I think it is something to consider for the specific scenario where one selects the Hauppauge remote during installation.
I also want to clarify who did what. While I did the wiki write up, I'm not the one that figured out how to solve this problem. I found this solution back in April by doing a bunch of web searches describing the symptoms. My original thread describing the solution can be found here -- http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... highlight= .Thanks are also due to William Lash & "no2u".

Just wanted to post with problem and solution, since this thread was the first one I found.
Environment: KnoppMyth R5F27
Problem: Hauppauge PVR250 gray remote stops responding after a while, or when watching TV.
Solution: comment out line in /etc/init.d/KnoppMyth-tv that refers to saa7134-dvb
Thanks for the help guys, I'm sure there are lots of people that glean help from you without you even knowing it!

FYI to others that read this thread in the future -- The approach lukeluca outlined will work fine if your system doesn't have a card that requires the SAA7134 driver. Using the modified ir-kbd-i2c.ko will work in either scenario...
