As for the LIRC_OPTS variable, this is the first time I have heard of it. Where to I check that and how should I set it. One more thing, I discovered that I do not have /dev/lirc rather I have /dev/lircd. Is this normal?

I'm not familiar with the " 0.8.0-CVS" lirc version, and you don't
mention what kernel version you are using, but I have noticed that
lirc seems to be very sensitive to kernel version, for example
0.8.0_pre1 works with my 2.6.14 kernel, while 0.8.0_pre3 does not,
although pre3 says that it has modifications for the 2.6.15 kernel.
I assume you have checked that LIRC_OPTS is pointing to the correct
character device for your setup.
