I got a BOFA-810 USB->Serial adapter and coupled it with a null modem cable (well, a couple 9-pin dsub->RJ45 adapters and an ethernet cable carefully configured). I had to severely modify the directv.pl script to allow it to work at 115200 with hardward flow control, but it seems to be partially working now (power on/off, osd on/off, channel changing all work). I'll post a copy of the script once I clean it up some more

I knew I would need to get an IR Blaster to change channels. I can't
find an lirc config for my stb, though:
Model (as far as I can tell) is DirecTV D11
I see that most DirecTV users have serial control - which would work
out great if I had an STB that had that input, especially since I already
have cables that will work.
I'd try to record my own lirc config, but the only IR receiver I have is
for the hauppauge card, so it's RC5.
Anybody know where I can find a config for the D11? Thanks!
