LIRC is not the most obvious thing in the world to set up and get
working, but once it's working it doesn't really require attention. 
Most of the difficulty stems from the variety of remotes and sensors out
there, all of which are a little different.  I'm using it with the IR
sensor that came with my Adaptec card, and in the past I've also used it
with a serial port sensor and remote that came with a Pinnacle PCTV
card.  Both were slightly confusing to set up, but both worked great
afterwards.
