I just did that exact thing this past weekend. Here's what I did:<BR>
1) Make sure you installed the kernel sources package. You need it.<BR>
2) Build the kernel from /usr/src/linux-2.4 with: "make oldconfig", "make dep", "make mrproper", "make" and "make modules". Note -- you do not need to install the kernel, just make it.<BR>
3) Make sure the installed lirc rpm is removed. I did "rpm -e --nodeps lirc"<BR>
4) Go to your lirc directory, and make it, then do a "make install".<BR>
5) Copy the lircd.conf.hauppauge config file from remotes/hauppauge to /etc/lircd.conf<BR>
6) start lircd by typing "lircd". Make sure it starts correctly by looking at the /var/log/lircd file. It should say something like: Nov 16 15:44:01 aion1000 lircd 0.7.0pre2: lircd(hauppauge) ready<BR>
7) start irw like: ./tools/irw Then try out pressing buttons on your remote. It should output button-presses to the console. If not, there is likely some version conflict between lircd and irw. Make absolutely sure the version of irw you are using was built with the version of lircd.<BR>
8) If all the above works, then make sure you build mythtv with "Native lirc support" -- which is just a simple change in the settings.pro file.<BR>
9) Copy the mythtv configfiles/hauppauge-lircrc-nativelirc file to ~/.mythtv/lircrc<BR>
10) startup mythfrontend. The remote should now work fine!<BR>

so I thought I would send it here too.
I had a thread on lirc about trying to get lirc working with my Hauppauge
350 grey remote. Someone was trying to help me, but I was not able to get
it working on that machine. So, I installed RH9 another machine and I'm
trying to get it working. I find the instructions on the lirc web site
confusing.
I run ./setup.sh and go through the setup. When I run "Save
Configuration & Run Configure" I get a message back at the end that I
need the kernel module and run 'make' and 'make install'. If I run make
right here I just get errors.
So I add the alias line to /etc/modules.conf per the lirc site:
alias char-major-61 lirc_driver
Then restart.
If I run the setup again I get the same thing. What am I supposed to do? I
have not installed anything but the OS on this machine. I figured once I got
lirc working then I would move on with mythtv, etc.
Help is appreciated. Thanks,
James
