Bump.<br><br>Does this hardware setup at least sound familiar or make sense to people? It sounds like it should be a straightforward install- I just feel like I'm missing some detail here. Should I pick up an easier alternative? If so, what?

Hi, all. So I'm continuing to try and get lirc working on my system. I
have a mobo with the nforce2 chipset. I took a step back to see what
else I could find, and it says this about Onboard Serial Port 2:<br>
---<br>
This item allows you to determine which i/o address the onboard serial
port 2 controller will access. These options are available:<br>
Disabled<br>
3f8/IRQ4<br>
2f8/IRQ3<br>
3e8/IRQ4<br>
2e8/IRQ3<br>
Auto<br>
<br>
The default setting is 2f8/IRQ3.<br>
---<br>
Then it lists settings regarding the irDA features. Now, I have a
Actisys IR210L adapter that attaches to the pins on the motherboard. I
have assumed up to this point that I want to use the lirc_sir driver,
but I don't know for sure. Should I be using lirc_serial instead? I
still can't get a hold of the ir port-- irda-utils and irda-setup seem
to grab it at startup according to fuser; even when I nkill the job to
free up the device (/dev/ttyS1), I have to use <font size="-1"><b>setserial uart</b>
none /dev/ttyS1 (though I've also head this makes the port unusable-
can someone clear this up for me?) in order to be able to install the
module.</font><br>
<br>
I just can't seem to get this working, and I feel sort of lost. Any help would be appreciated.<br>
<br>
Peace,<br>
Jack.<br>
