A timely topic... http://www.home-electro.com/buy_it.php I bought an IRA-3 from these guys and I'm in the process of returning it.  I had a hell of a time trying to get this thing to work with LIRC.  I had lots of configuration hassles and it turns out that libirman (used by LIRC) has a bug in i

Does this receiver use the lirc_serial kernel driver to work? I have been having much trouble getting my IRA 3 receiver to work with lirc and am fresh out of ideas on what to do to fix it, so I'm considering getting a different receiver. Thanks, Ali On 9/2/05, Steve Bower <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrot
