On my install I only have /dev/lirc /dev/lircd and /dev/lircm
ls /dev/lir* -la
crw-r--r--  1 root root 61, 0 Apr 17 21:12 /dev/lirc
srw-r--r--  1 root root     0 Apr 17 21:16 /dev/lircd
prw-r--r--  1 root root     0 Apr 17 21:12 /dev/lircm

using cat on these devices gives me nothing in return (same as irw).
Starting to think my ir receiver is broken.
