I have a number of these units running on FC7 & FC8 using the Hauppauge 
remotes. The lircd version is 0.8.3-CVS. Do you have the options for 
lircd setup to use the irman driver?

[user at shuttle1 ~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/lircd
# Options to lircd
LIRCD_OPTIONS="-H irman -d /dev/ttyS0"

Now, if I could figure out the Tira magic incantation things would be a 
bit better.
