[mythtv-users] IR Problem with FC4

I don't know which /dev file you should be linking the /dev/lirc file to
with the PVR-350, but I would recommend that at least while you test, just
use (as root or via sudo) 'lircd -n' to see the messages immediately and
then you don't have to go and look for them. I have a USB-UIRT, and so I
ended up having to edit the /etc/sysconfig/lircd file to show -h uirt2
--device=/dev/ttyUSB0   I'd expect that you simply need to edit your file
appropriately.
