Can you describe a little more for me about what you've tried. 1) Does LIRC work at all for anything? If you open /usr/bin/irw does it actually open and recognize your signals from your remote? 2) I am one of the authors of lircsetup.com, and am most comfortable using that method. Just a heads up so you know where I might be steering you. Can you attach the following files for me:
/etc/lircd.conf /etc/modprobe.conf /etc/rc.d/rc.local your channel changing script 3) Which version of LIRC are you using? (you can find out by typing "rpm -qa lirc" minus the quotes in a command prompt. 4) Have you tried both COM1 and COM2 for your IR blaster?
