</div>I've not had any luck with onboard ir. They get recognized as serial<br>
ports because they're IRDA. The recent versions of lirc supposedly<br>
support irda ports and I've noticed it recognizes the port but nothing<br>
happens. I think my brother's HP laptop was able to use the onboard ir<br>
port though - I remember Ubuntu giving him the "binary driver" warning<br>
for lirc. His came with a small express-card sized remote.<br>

</div>I've used the USB ir box that came with my PVR150 and it works<br>
perfectly. I don't have it configured to my current computer but it<br>
worked when I tried it last a little over a year ago. Note that on<br>
mine there are two piecees... the one with the USB port is the IR<br>
receiver, there's also a little piece with a long cord that plugs in<br>
like a headphone jack that is an IR sender for controlling other<br>
devices. I didn't try it out.<br>
