I got my two-for-$whatever remotes but I'm having problems with lircd.
I'm running RH9, mythtv and lircd installed from the atrpms package.
Maybe it's just too late to be dealing with this :)
Getting this from lircd:
ircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: could not open config file '/etc/lircd.conf'
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: No such file or directory
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: lircd(hauppauge) ready
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: could not get hardware features
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: this device driver does not support the new LIRC
interface
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: make sure you use a current version of the driver
lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: caught signal
Terminated
And in /var/adm/messages:
Nov 22 01:06:35 pluto lircd 0.7.0pre2[2163]: No such file or directory

irrecord gives me (same with and without lircd running):
[root at pluto root]# irrecord /tmp/foo
irrecord - application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc
Copyright (C) 1998,1999 Christoph Bartelmus(lirc at bartelmus.de)
irrecord: could not init hardware (lircd running ? --> close it, check
permissions)
My /dev/lircd is a symlink to /dev/ttyS2.
Any ideas?
Thanks
