Hi,

I have it working without any problems, although I think there are more than
one version
of the antec fusion case, so maybe you have a newer one with different
hardware to me.
I know mine didn't come with a remote.


Module list...

$ lsmod | grep lirc
lirc_imon              22924  2
lirc_dev               19892  1 lirc_imon


I also only have one device listed...

$ ls -asl /dev/lirc*
0 crw-rw---- 1 root root 61, 0 2009-05-19 08:04 /dev/lirc0
0 srw-rw-rw- 1 root root     0 2009-05-19 08:04 /dev/lircd


My /etc/lirc/hardware.conf file (ubuntu 9.04)...

REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""
LOAD_MODULES=true
REMOTE_DRIVER=""
REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_imon"
