I bought a packard Bell remote on eBay for not much at all and it has
a serial port IR receiver and a pretty decent remote, tho you could
use a different remote if you have one. The receiver works very well
and was easy to set up - just lirc_serial module. I think there's a
lot of these on eBay - eg
