Total IR Control for Linux
Home arrow Installation
 
CommandIR Installation Overview
Note: As of October 17th 2008, we recommend you use the new CommandIR Userspace driver, now available in LIRC 0.8.4!  It is compatible with CommandIR Mini and CommandIR II, and multiples of either/both. "lircd --driver=commandir" will choose the correct driver with LIRC.  [ more info ]
 
Note 2: CommandIRs are fully compatible with all Linuxes via LIRC, including but not limited to Gentoo, Debian and derivatives (Ubuntu, Knoppix, MythBuntu, KnopMyth), Fedora and derivatives (MythDora).
 

Installation Overview

If you're experienced with Linux you should have no problem setting up on any distro, however if you are new to Linux we highly recommend MythBuntu and KnoppMyth.

For advanced setup of LIRC CVS, see Installation from LIRC CVS.
