OK, I followed these instructions, but I still wind up with lirc_serial: auto-detected active high receiver However, that would appear not to be a problem, because jvc_send would appear to work fine. I just powered off my dish receiver using my home-brew dongle! Thanks a lot. It seems clear now that I just didn't clean up sufficiently last night after Mandrake's lirc stuff.

If you have installed lirc from source, also 'make uninstall' from the lirc source directory. Delete the lirc directory from the 3rdparty directory. Do a locate lirc to find the path. Then run setup.sh in the lirc source directory Select home brew, com port check off Transmitter diode. Save / make / make install In rc.local setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none //you will need to urpmi setserial in Mandrake. modprobe lirc_serial lircd This is all from memory, so I hope I got all the basic steps for you.
