[mythtv-users] Remote Control Recommendations??

[Robert Teed]

Hello Ben,
I purchased a Tivo remote off ebay and an ir receiver from some company in 
Denmark. It works in windows with  wintv software. I cant figure out how to 
install Lirc in Linux. Im running Fedora core 1.
Im kind of new to Linux, I have tried it many times before, Fedora seems to 
be a good distro, I have a fully working mythtv setup with the exception of 
my remote control. I do not have a pvr 250 or 350. Im using a wintv card, 
works great.
Can you explain to me how to setup Tivo and Lirc using Fedora ?  I have used 
Jason Wilsons guide to get my system running but cant seem to
follow the instructions for the Lirc part of it. I use "YUM" to download and 
install programs.
Any thing you can tell me to help me out? It might have something to do with 
Kernel?

You can email me off list at robteed at msn.com
