I have a Universal Remote Control MX-500 and am trying to get it to work

fine, so the irman does support the signal from my remote. When I run
lircd and then irw or irrecord I don't get any output though. No
errors, but also no output. I only have one serial device and I made
sure lircd was using the right one. I tried loading lircd with
parameters --driver=irman --device=/dev/ttyS0, but then as soon as I run
irw it closes and lircd is no longer running. I am pretty clueless when
it comes to this stuff, does anybody have any ideas?

Just an update. I changed my serial from 3F8/IRQ4 to 2F8/IRQ3 since we
couldn't even talk to our Cisco modem. But on 2F8/IRQ3 we can, so I
tried the Irman again and this is the messages I get back from lircd
when running `lircd -n -d /dev/ttyS1`
could not open config file '/etc/lircd.conf'
No such file or directory
lircd(any) ready
Now I run irw and get the following from lircd:
accepted new client on /dev/lircd
could not get hardware features
this device driver does not support the new LIRC interface
major number of /dev/ttyS1 is 4
LIRC major number is 61
check if /dev/ttyS1 is a LIRC device
caught signal
Terminated
If I try and specify a driver with --driver=irman I get:
accepted new client on /dev/lircd
could not open /dev/ttyS1
irman_init(): Input/output error
caught signal
Terminated
I am running them both as root. I've tested the port by talking to a
Cisco modem and I've tested the device on my Windows machine, so I don't
think I either are bad. Any thoughts?

Oooh, yeah, had this problem too. Issue was that I didn't have a conf
file installed. I was trying to get my Uni remote going, and got nothing
from irw. The trick is you have to have a lircd.conf in the lircd search
path (just dump it into /etc, that _should_ work). I just chose the
default hauppage and then programmed my Uni to understand the hauppage.
Use whatever remote actually would work with your irman (does that come
with a default remote?) and you should be all set. The Uni remotes don't
output anything that lirc understands without some coaxing.
