What interface are you using?
Note almost all X10 modules are one way, receivers only. So turning one on or off locally will not send a status changed message back to a controller.

I have cm15a x_10 interface
in Active home pro ( win) when a module is activated by Rf command for exemple the status is updated.
On linux "mochad" seems to gtet status bytes :

First off. Please excuse my question on which interface.
The title of the thread was very clear. My head was not.  B:(

There are some very knowledgeable Linux users here and I am sure they will have better details for you.
