Thank you very much.  However, I'm quite new to Linux
so I'm basically just following instructions and can't
understand everything just yet.

I am stuck on step 4:

Modify /etc/lirc/hardware.conf to call *only*
lirc_pvr150

# sed -i 's/^MODULES/#MODULES/g'
/etc/lirc/hardware.conf

# echo MODULES="lirc_pvr150" >>
/etc/lirc/hardware.conf

When I enter the second command, I get the following
response:

-bash: /etc/lirc/hardware.conf: Permission denied

What does this mean?  I run it as sudo.

Thanks!
