Ok...I have a bunch of info for you:

my syslog sez this:
 
Oct 22 21:09:45 pjv-lin-3 kernel: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver
registered, at major 61 
Oct 22 21:09:46 pjv-lin-3 kernel: bttv: driver version 0.9.16 loaded
Oct 22 21:09:46 pjv-lin-3 kernel: bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520
pages) each for capture
Oct 22 21:09:46 pjv-lin-3 kernel: cx2388x v4l2 driver version 0.0.6
loaded
Oct 22 21:09:46 pjv-lin-3 kernel: lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x71 (Hauppauge
IR (PVR150))
Oct 22 21:09:46 pjv-lin-3 kernel: lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:
sample_rate: 10
Oct 22 21:09:48 pjv-lin-3 kernel: lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:
sample_rate: 0
Oct 22 21:09:48 pjv-lin-3 kernel: lirc_sir: I/O port 0x03e8, IRQ 4.
Oct 22 21:09:48 pjv-lin-3 kernel: lirc_sir: Installed.
Oct 22 21:09:48 pjv-lin-3 lircd-0.8.1-CVS[2336]: lircd(userspace) ready

My rc.local looks like this:

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c
/sbin/modprobe lirc_sir
/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --output=/dev/lircd
/usr/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc1
--output=/dev/lircd1 --pidfile=/var/run/lircd1.pid

My modprobe.conf looks like this:

alias eth0 sky2
alias char-major-61-0 lirc_i2c
alias char-major-61-1 lirc_sir
options lirc_serial irq=4 io=0x3f8
####IR setup####
install lirc_i2c /sbin/modprobe ivtv; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install
lirc_i2c
install lirc_sir setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none; /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install lirc_sir
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_sis
alias snd-card-0 snd-ca0106
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-ca0106 index=0
remove snd-ca0106 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1
|| : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ca0106

And I am trying to send out this:

echo 0_0_KEY_POWER
irsend SEND_ONCE blaster 0_0_KEY_POWER
sleep 1
echo 1_0_KEY_POWER
irsend SEND_ONCE blaster 1_0_KEY_POWER
sleep 1
echo 0_1_KEY_POWER
irsend SEND_ONCE blaster 0_1_KEY_POWER
sleep 1
etc
etc

for a whole bunch of different types of set top boxes.

Best Regards, Peter
