Michael,

first off, lirc allows only one module to be enabled at a time. You 
cannot, for example, load lirc_sir and lirc_serial at the same time.

What device are you trying to record? Were you able to find an entry for

your device in http://www.lirc.org/remotes.tar.bz2 ? It appears some 
people are experiencing issues with the 200L when they try to RECORD ir 
codes. Transmitting works fine so long as you have a valid lircd.conf
file.
