Hi, all. I just bought a USB-UIRT to help me transmit channel changes using mythdora 4.0.
I've gone through the excellent info at: http://www.usbuirt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=850 and http://www.usbuirt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=792. However, I'm still having problems (perhaps with frequency, perhaps with something else).
In one window I've run tail-f /var/log/messages and in the other irw
irw (receiving side) seems to work:
000000000000bff8 00 2 DCT2000
000000000000bff8 00 2 DCT2000
000000000000bff8 00 2 DCT2000
tail -f /var/log/messages

The thing that bothers me about this is the checksum error.
When I do an irsend, I get:
irsend send_once DCT2000 power
(messages:)

and in /etc/sysconfig/lircd

Any ideas or suggestions?
