Jakob, it doesn't work in FC9 I'm afraid, it needs an lirc that's too new. But running: yum --enablerepo=rawhide install gnome-lirc-properties will drag the dependencies. Easier than backporting given the few differences between the stacks.
Anonymous, I have no idea whether it's merged upstream, or which part of lirc you're specifically talking about (I guess it's the receiver drivers).

If you have an infra-red remote control, you can now use gnome-lirc-properties, available in Fedora Rawhide. There were quite a few changes and upstream fixes required to make it work, which makes this change blog-worthy.

Very nice to see. Does it also work in FC9?

But has lirc been merged in upstream's kernel yet?
