I bought this same receiver from the same eBay seller.  Received it the other
day.  The receiver isn't working for me in Linux (KnoppMyth RA15), however I
know the receiver is good as I've hooked it up to my WinXP box and it works
like a charm in Windows.  No problems with the seller... quick shipment, etc.
so I definitely recommend the seller.  I just hope I can get the receiver to
work with KnoppMyth.

If anyone's got a serial IR receiver working with KnoppMyth RA15 successfully
then I'd love to hear how you did it.  I was able to rebuild lirc 0.7.1, got
the lirc_serial kernel module built and loaded, but when I run 'irw' I get no
response from it when I push any remote buttons.  Again, the same receiver and
remote hooked up to my WinXP box works like a charm.
