The approach I've used to run two instances of LIRC is to build two
different set of binaries with different names. You can do a
search/replace on the source code for all occurances of the driver name
and change it to something else, and use different conf files. I haven't
done this for a while, but I haven't seen anything recently that LIRC
can handle multiple IR devices. Perhaps somebody else here knows of a
more elegant solution.
