I installed both the lirc and lirc-utils packages.
1) I copied over the lircd.conf for my remote from /usr/share/lirc/remotes/streamzap/lircd.conf.streamzap
2) I modprobed both modules listed on this page,
3) I started lircd.
I'm using the standard streamzap usb remote/receiver. When I test it with irw, it works for a little while, but then lircd seems to ignore the remote commands completely. I hit buttons, but nothing gets registered by irw.

All I get in my /var/log/lircd is:

Nov 27 05:25:40 lightning lircd: lircd(default) ready, using /var/run/lirc/lircd
Nov 27 05:25:43 lightning lircd: accepted new client on /var/run/lirc/lircd
Nov 27 05:26:04 lightning lircd: removed client
Suggestions are appreciated.

According to this page, should I be using the "configure --with-driver option" of "streamzap" with my setup?
I found /etc/conf.d/lircd.conf which reads:
#
# Parameters for lirc daemon
#
LIRC_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
LIRC_DRIVER=""
LIRC_EXTRAOPTS=""
LIRC_CONFIGFILE=""
I tried adding the word "streamzap" to the LIRC_DRIVER section, but that resulted in errors when starting lircd:
# /etc/rc.d/lircd start
:: Starting LIRC Daemon [BUSY]
Driver `streamzap' not supported.

Am I barking up the wrong tree with editing that file at all?

Problem was low batteries! Unbelievable. I must have burnt 3 hours troubleshooting this! Haven't marked it as solved yet because I'd like to know the answer to post #2.
