<font size="+2">After searching and reading many documents, <br>
I have been unable to get LIRC installed successfully.<br>
The problems I've encountered with all that is written:<br>
</font>
<blockquote><font size="+2"> more than 2 years old</font><br>
<font size="+2"> for older releases of linux (which do not</font><br>
<font size="+2"> have the lirc modules included in the kernal)</font><br>
</blockquote>
<div align="left"><font size="+2">I believe I have the latest Mythtv;</font><br>
</div>
<font size="+2">it was obtained using the following three commands:<br>
</font>
<blockquote><font size="+2"> git clone
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv.git">https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv.git</a></font><br>
<font size="+2"> cd mythtv</font><br>
<font size="+2"> git checkout fixes/0.24 </font><br>
</blockquote>
<font size="+2"><br>
Linux is:<br>
</font>
<blockquote><font size="+2"> Distribution is debian
squeeze/stabl <br>
</font><font size="+2"> Linux kernel is 2.6.38-2-amd64 #1 SMP
Sun </font><br>
<font size="+2"> May 8 13:51:57 UTC 2011 x86_64
GNU/Linux </font><br>
</blockquote>
<font size="+2"><br>
<br>
what I would like to do with LIRC is to allow Mythtv<br>
to send commands to the satellite set-top-box<br>
<br>
Any guidance greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
<br>
