Karanbir, I am still having problems. I grabbed the rpm and installed it. I could not get a /dev/lircd device. I put the lirc.rules in /etc/udev/... even rebooted and still not there. I then grabbed the src rpm, went through the normal stuff and tried to run ./configure and it tells me I need the kernel source installed. I have the kernel source installed. I am just selecting the default of serial when I run ./configure. I would like to do this from the source package - but the kernel source keeps stopping that... Any further ideas?
