Light work

Getting the new IR Transceiver to work didn't prove too difficult - a bit laborious because it needed a rebuild of LIRC to get it to recognise the hardware, but it pretty much sprang to life after that.

What's proving more difficult it getting the transmit function to work. Receive seems straightforward enough, but getting something meaningful OUT of the device is rather more complicated. I suspect it's going to mean delving into the depths of some arcane code and a fair bit of trial and error - but if I can get this bit right, it'll set me on the right road for everything else that is to come.
