I am having the same problem actually. I am using a different remote control/tuner card (leadtek WinFast cool command) however. I have been reading reading all of the lirc documentation over the last couple of days but its mostly for compiling the kernel mod and device yourself. I am using the atrmps distro for all of my myth/lirc stuff and these are the packages I have installed:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# yum list *lirc*
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Installed Packages
lirc.i386 0.8.0-54_cvs20060107.r installed
lirc-devices.noarch 0.7.0-1.rhfc4.at installed
lirc-kmdl-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4smp.i686 0.8.0-54_cvs20060107.r installed
lirc-lib.i386 0.8.0-54_cvs20060107.r installed
lirc-lib-devel.i386 0.8.0-54_cvs20060107.r installed
I also just have a lircd in the /dev directory:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ls -l /dev/lir*
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Jan 10 12:41 /dev/lircd
When i run "lircd -n as root I do not see any errors:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lircd -n
lircd-0.8.0-CVS[2954]: lircd(userspace) ready
^H^H
lircd-0.8.0-CVS[2954]: caught signal
When I run irw it automatically kills my lircd if it is running, but does not sit there and listen for commands. It just exits right away. Is this the normal behavior? I do remember at one time that when i ran irw is actually did receive a signal from one of the buttons on my remote, but unfortunately I have made the problem worse.
Any help is definitely appreciated. I can't wait to get this working so that I can transfer all of my myth commands from my leadtek remote to my all-in-on. Now that will be impressive!
Thanks,
Seth

Well, this would be specific to the remote "receiver" you are using. I'm assuming that you are using the one that comes with the PVR-350.
What do you see when you run 'ls -l /dev/lir*' as root? You should at a minimum have an lircd file, but you may have an lirc0 file which might be the one to point to. Also tell me the output of running 'lircd -n' as root. You may have to run 'service lircd stop' first. Give me those and I'll check into some of the specific PVR-350 settings in the mean time. Lirc was a big problem for me as it seems that the directions are extremely vague for anyone not using the 250 and 150. Since I have a USB Uirt, I had to figure some of it out on my own. I still need to figure out how to rebuild Myth with lirc support built-in.
