Up to now I've been using a USB-connected IR receiver on my mythtv frontend,
but for my new 'frontend in an old sky
box<http://mythtv1.wordpress.com/2010/09/06/more-mythtv-front-end-photos/>'
I want to use the IR receiver device that is already sitting mounted on the
PCB  inside the front of my case.

If I wire up the IR receiver with a couple of components as shown on the
lirc page HERE <http://www.lirc.org/receivers.html>, and connect it to the
serial port header on my motherboard, how do I tell 'lircd' that I'm using a
device on the serial port?

Any pointers or links to FAQs appreciated!

Thanks!
George
