[mythtv-users] Can't get LIRC to work with my Serial card - IRQ tied up?

[Jay Mallar]

Hi Ryan,

My MB is an Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus, and the BIOS as a Phoenix-Award BIOS 
v6.00PG, although the startup screen also displays:

ASUS PN5N32-E SLI PLUS ACPI BIOS Revision 0803.

I haven't been able to find anything in the BIOS setup that lets me 
configure any of the PCI devices, except for very generic things like 
whether I have a Plug & Play O/S (setting to Yes and No seems to produce 
the exact same results).
