USB-UIRT using LIRC-0.8.4a

[hylim]

Hi,

I've just bought the USB-UIRT device with 56kHz IR receiver & I'm trying to get it to work with LIRC.
The system that I am installing the USB-UIRT on:
Fedora 6; Linux 2.6.20
LIRC 0.8.4a (Latest)

I am not using the yum to instal the LIRc; instead configuring & compiling the LIRC source file.
The configuration I am using:
./configure --with-driver=usb_uirt_raw --with-transmitter

After that, I did a make; make install.

Compilation & installation went well.
When i did:
/usr/local/sbin/lircd -H ?

I see:

[root@localhost lock]# /usr/local/sbin/lircd -H ?
Driver `?' not supported.
Supported drivers:
usb_uirt_raw

Also, the FTDI_serial module is laoded properly:

However, when I did the irw:

Nothing happens even though I am using a valid lircd config file which I learned using another device (iguanaIR). Using iguanaIR & exact same method, I was able to verify the commands of the Remote using irw. But it doesn't work with USB-UIRT.

Similarly, when I use irrecord:

irrecord -H usb_uirt_raw -d /dev/ttyUSB0 -f test_raw2

irrecord - application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc

It hangs here!

When I use irsend:

I get irsend: timeout

Checking the log message (var/log/lircd):

Any one has any idea what did I do wrong?
