Perhaps a small addition if I might because it's not quite as easy as this. In most cases any computer with a built in infrared device is going to be using IrDA, these devices are typically incompatible with consumer IR devices. Linux or not, you'll have a difficult time without a proper CIR (Consumer IR) peripheral.
