I'm trying to attach IrDA devices to my Debian Squeeze (2.6.30.1 kernel) machine.
I Have an IrDA keyboard (Microsoft Remote Keyboard for WinXP MCE v1.0, using RC6 API) and a Hauppage remote, also labeled RC6 - but to get as far as trying to grab their emissions, i need a working IrDA adapter.
Got hold of a DeLock USB adapter, identifying itself as ID 1685:0200 on USB.
First step must be getting the thing working in /dev, then second connecting it to something remote via LIRC.
But how do i verify it works? LIRC offers a gazillion profiles for remotes of all kinds, but this is obviously a chain of devices. So, first, i'll need to make the IrDA device work. But how?
