Mindpath remote

[Preston.F.Crow.Adv94@Alum.Dartmouth.ORG (P. F. C. Adv94)]

I have a Mindpath remote.  I think it's the IR50 FX as described at:
	http://www.mindpath.com/Products/ir50fx.htm
It comes with an external serial-port IR receiver, but of course, the
software only supports Windows.

I've tried all the possible serial drivers in lirc-0.6.2, but none of them
work.

I've tried a bunch of settings with minicom, but none of them resulted in
anything being displayed when I sent a bunch of signals.  (You can tell it
is receiving because the light flickers.)

So is there any procedure I can follow to figure out what settings to use
to get the raw data out so I can get this supported?
