Libretto,
I will sent you the LIRC modules shortly.
Check your BIOS that your IrDA mode is set for standard (SIR) because apparently LIRC won't work in FIR mode.
After installing the lirc-modules deb, I believe you can load LIRC like this -
modprobe lirc_sir irq=10 io=0x3e8
You may also need to install setserial, to check that your system sees the IR port (in my case /dev/ttyS2) at the correct IRQ. If it's wrong, you can force it there as such -
setserial /dev/ttyS2 irq 10
Some documentation also suggests that you should force the IR port to an undefined uart, as such -
setserial /dev/ttyS2 uart none
At this point you will want to run some diagnostics from an xterm to see if things are working. I was experimenting with various IR communication tasks, but not remote control, so I can't help you here.
You may need to install irda-utils? I'm not sure.
Regarding Minidisc TOC Editor, this is qt based, so you will need to install libqt3.
Good luck.
