[mythtv-users] Hauppauge grey remote with homemade serial IR receiver in MythTV 0.26 and Fedora 19

I have installed MythTV in Fedora 19 on a test box mostly following 
these instructions, except using RPM Fusion and the Software Install GUI 
instead of yum:
<http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_Fedora>

Now I want to get my Hauppauge grey remote working with a homemade 
serial receiver, which are currently working in MythDora 12.23, but I 
have not been successful. I copied lircd.conf and .lircrc from the 
MythDora installation to /etc/lirc and ~, respectively, on the test box, 
but what now? (I've listed those files below my signature.)

The documentation on the lirc.org page is not working right now, so I 
installed lirc-docs. Those instructions assume you are compiling LIRC 
from scratch, which I am not. According to this page, the LIRC modules 
are already in the kernel.
<http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/LIRC>

I tried running
     #modprobe lirc_serial
and it seemed to run OK, but neither irw nor irrecord is showing any 
keypresses.

What do I do now?
