Thanks for the quick response. I started having a bunch of other problems too so I decided to just start over from scratch and reinstall Fedora C3 x86_64. It's helping me learn a lot about Linux anyway so I don't really mind having to do this over and over if that is what it takes.
To answer your question though (in case I run into it again) /usr/bin/irw did exist and I had two lirc devices in /dev /dev/lirc and /dev/lirc0 The case I bought for this project has an ir receiver on the front that plugs into usb and I also have the ir receiver on my PVR-350 (I guess that is why I had two lirc devices in /dev. Which brings a completely different topic to mind, if anyone knows of good instructions for setting up lirc to use a usb port please point me to it.

More information would be good, like what distro you're running, what versions of ir-related packages you have installed, etc. I'm replying 'cause I recently had to back out of the latest atrpms lirc upgrade for fc1 (the kernel module wouldn't create /dev entries, I think). If you've recently done such an upgrade then perhaps that's your problem too. > If I try to run /usr/bin/irw I > get not such file or directory. And does /usr/bin/irw exist? Or is it complaining 'cause /dev/lirc* doesn't exist? -- "We are here on Earth to fart around.
