Re: [Usbirboy-devel] JB16 code- Ubuntu, how to install.

[John <jha...@ya...>]

You'll want to install lirc. Then, you have to compile the usbirboy source files found at sourceforge by doing a make and then make install. This'll build and install the usbirboy.ko module. Then on boot you'll want to modprobe usbirboy and this'll create /dev/usbirboy. Then you'll want to start lirc with this device like lircd -d /dev/usbirboy.
