Re: Lirc on Zaurus

[Erin R. <nr...@ma...>]

Hi:

	It also took a a few weeks to get LIRC working on my Zaurus 5500.  I
don't remember Rudy's posting on 24th, but, I think I did reply him. 
Anyways, if you are trying to configure driver=lirc_sir, it won't work. 
I did driver=ipaq, and it is the right parameter to use.  Good luck. 
Let me know if this helps.
