Re: How do I get the USB part/device of the DViCO DVB-T HDTV Dual digital card to work?

I just tried to get my the dvico remote going, roughly using
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~chrisp/Linux-DVB/DVICO/ as a guide, but had
no luck. The guys instructions involved building lirc0.7.0, and
patching that. I currently have lirc 0.8.1 (installed via
yum/atrpms/smart/whatever), and I am hesitant to remove this and build
lirc0.7.0, as if this fails, I'll probably just get one of those
MS-MSE remotes (they are supported by an unpatched lirc).

Does anyone know how to get the divco dual dvb-t remote working with lirc0.8.1?
