From my tiny mind the following points come from memory Display server to work properly (wee buttons in window) you need a custom kernal which has remote commands from displayserver built in which pretend to be IR commands this kernal is available from franks site but since you have Mlords hack running it won't work.

So either we need frank give us the idea as to what displayserver gives out or someone real clever to combine the two as the both rule and i too would like both to be there.

Only other thought is to run displayserver and then look at the botton codes display on marks software to see if it gives nything out when the buttons in applet are clicked.
