3Opie-remote is a remote control emulator for the Compaq iPaq and the Sharp 4Opie-Remote is a universal infra-red remote control application for Opie on
4Zaurus. It requires lirc (http://www.lirc.org) to run. There are lirc ipkgs 5handhelds such as the iPAQ and the Zaurus. It requires LIRC
5for the iPaq in the Handhelds.org feed. You must first install the 6(http://www.lirc.org) to run. There are LIRC packages for the iPAQ in the
6lirc-modules-[kernel version] ipkg, and then the lirc ipkg with the 7Familiar feed. You must first install the kernel-module-lirc-sir package,
7-force-depends option. The Zaurus is supported, but requires you to compile 8and then the lirc package. OpenZaurus should provide similar packages.
8from lirc's CVS. Zaurus support should be in lirc 0.6.6 and up. Check the learn 9
9tab in opie-remote for more detailed configuration and usage instructions. 10Note that Opie-Remote has only been tested on an iPAQ h3800 series device.
