Thanks for that hint! I've now progressed to the point where mode2 produces
data on the screen. It would therefore seem the setup is working!

As I now need to generate my own lircd.conf file, I have tried to run
irrecord. This gives the following output:

 # irrecord -d --device=device /dev/lirc
irrecord: error in configfile line 1
irrecord: file "/dev/lirc" does not contain valid data

What would be causing this and how can I fix it?

Thank you.

Tom
