Buy one of those cheap PC Remote's with serial IR Receiver on e-bay for like 7 bucks, throw the remote away, and get a 15-2116 from Radio Shack. I've done it three times for different machines.

Here's a link to what I'm talking about: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3761&item=5181277468&rd=1

I have one of those Packard Bell remotes and could never get it to work properly with LIRC. Granted, that was just prior to the Lirc 0.7 release while lirc was having a fair bit of trouble playing well with FC2 and I'm not exactly a linux expert, so it is not surprising that I couldn't make it work. I'd like to give it a shot again. Would you mind sharing your configuration info with me? What version of lirc are you using, what does your lircd.conf look like, what does your modprobe.conf look like?
