I saw a few emails on this list regarding Consumer IR, but I'm still not
clear on the linux IR support when it comes to such devices.  

I've got a device with an on-chip CIR peripheral. According to the spec,
CIR is a programmable amplitune shift keyed (ASK) serial communication
protocol. "By adjusting frequencies, baud rate divisor values and
sensitivity ranges, CIR registers are able to support the major
protocols such as RC-5, NEC, and RECS-80."  On the other hand, an other
embedded cpu I'm working with has built-in IrDA peripheral with support
for SIR, MIR, and FIR modes.  It appears the linux IrDA support is for
the latter, so I'm unsure if there's any support for "Consumer IR" in
linux at all.  

Also, does anyone know just what CIR devices are available out there
(are there keyboards and mice that support CIR)?

Thanks,

Pete
