Also, from user apps dev view, I think is more difficult to check for input events knowing that every remote has different buttons, instead of configure the .lircrc and use lirc_client for receive directly software-commands.
We can drop /dev/lirc*, and use input events with received codes, but I think that lircd is still needed to translate them into userland commands... -- Flameeyes <dgp85@users.sf.net>
