Hello! I'm trying to figure out how to install a remote control taken from an old Win-machine. 1) Since when has LIRC supported my hardware? Is Creative's Infra supported in 0.6.6 or only in 0.7-cvs? 2) Does anybody know how this hardware works anyway. Does the remote control's signal go to the system via the IDE-cable or via the audio-cable and soundcard? How does the BIOS see the infrared port? ..as a virtual serial port or what? 3) How does the installing from a .deb to my Debian system differ from the instructions described about installing from source? (=what does the .deb do and what should the user do?) 4) If somebody already has done it - how should I install this hardware in short? Thanks a lot for any replies, -Otto |
