This is a driver for "homebrew" type serial LIRC reveivers as
|
|
described here:
|
|
|
|
http://lirc.org/receivers.html
|
|
|
|
It overrides the `normal' uart(4) driver, if you have that driver
|
|
already loaded or statically in your kernel (like it is in GENERIC)
|
|
then you need to load uartlirc.ko from loader.conf(5) (or manually
|
|
via the loader prompt) for the override to work. The driver provides
|
|
a /dev/lircX node for each serial port in addition to the normal
|
|
tty nodes /dev/cuauX etc, so you can still use other serial ports
|
|
normally should you have more than one.
|
|
|
|
Note: it only supports PCI/motherboard serial ports not ones connected
|
|
via USB, for USB you can use mceusb hardware supported via webcamd,
|
|
or FTDI hardware supported by comms/lirc natively via libftdi, see:

|
|
|
|
and the comms/lirc port's pkg-message.
