If you don't start your program, does the remote control work?

No, it doesn't. The IR indicator flickers, but running motors or • starting
the program doesn't work.

Strange. To get it clear: If you download a fresh made brickOS.srec, you
can't use the remote control to start a motor or start a program and if
you press the beep-key, the rcx does not beep??

Does your remote work with the original Lego firmware?

Bye the way, I excluded the lr_startup() and lr_shutdown() calls and the
program ran fine without them. But that is not the real problem on your
side, I think

I think the call to lr_shutdown() in Christian's program clobbered
things such that the remote may no longer be useable unless the
power is cycled on/off or a fresh copy of brickOS.srec is downloaded.

He already indicated that the remote works fine with the standard
firmware (in the original post), so I think the nested calls to
startup & shutdown are putting the system into an undesirable state.
