For instructions on setting up lirc (along with mythtv) on FC6, this link spells out what you need to do: http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php#lirc It uses pre-built packages from atrpms, but since you already have compiled lirc from source, you can skip the "yum install" steps. Choose the "Using the IR port on a PVR-x50:" section. When it mentions "ivtv" substitute "pvrusb2". If you still have problems after reading this link, I'll be glad to help. > > Thanks, > Ryan -- Roger J.
