LIRC and Dapper

[Brian McKee]

Hi All
	I have an MSI TV at nywhere video capture card that comes with a remote.
The card itself was 'plug n play'.  tvtime worked as soon as I installed
and rebooted.  The problem is I cannot figure out how to get that remote
working.   As near as I can tell it's not on there list so I have to run
'irrecord' to create a template for it.  But I can't even get that far.

If I run sudo /etc/init.d/lircd start I get 
	LIRC IS NOT CONFIGURED  
I gather the next step is running  irrecord
Running that I get 
	irrecord: could not init hardware
        
I don't have a /dev/lirc but I do have a /dev/lircd
I changed it's ownership to root.video and did a chmod 666 on it.  
No change.  I have no idea what to do next...

I actually posted this on the LIRC list several days ago but got no
response, which was pretty disheartening...

Pointers appreciated.
