I'm having some troubles getting lirc to work. I've been over it a
few times now and I still can't seem to figure it out. I've been
following Jarrod's excellent guide but I just seem to be stuck. I'd
rather try to figure my problem out than reformat it (again). I'm
using a PVR-350 with a grey hauppage remote running on FC2 (Kernel
2.6.8-1.521). Everything else seems to be working just fine. Sorry
for all the detail in this post but I was hoping someone can just look
at this and realize where I messed up. Any help would be much
appreciated.
/var/log/messages is as follows:
