About

As i very often suggest what peoples configuration files should look like in IRC, i thought i would write it down for all to see

P.s. I think this guide needs some work, im just getting the basics down on paper while their fresh in my head

Types of Remote

If your using one of these USB remotes http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MCE_Remote You are using lirc_mceusb or lirc_mceusb2

If your using a serial device, you are using lirc_serial
