These are the lines from Jarod's Guide I am using to grab lirc:

# apt-get install lirc-kmdl-$KVER
# apt-get install lirc

So you are saying there is a specific lirc-kmdl... for USB?  I can
start the LIRC daemon without problems...but I really need to know how
to setup the USB receiver and where I should get these packages from. 
Thanks!
