This doesn't work either:

checking for Linux kernel sources... ./configure: line 22917: test: too
many arguments
/home/scorpion/src/kernel/linux-2.6.25/

Hi,
I have have been trying for a while now to get the ir receiver to work on my case with not much success so far it is an Origenae x11.  I know that the receiver works because I am able to use it when using the IRtrans server app.  However, in order to control my STB I have to use lirc.  I am using a usb-uirt as my transmitter and that seems to work, at least from the attached keyboard, to control mythtv.
My issue is that I have tried to use the mceusb (lirc_mceusb2) driver so far and it has never worked.  It was suggested to me that maybe I am using the wrong driver.  So my question is which driver should I be using to get the receiver to work?
Thanks
