I think it depends what you have as an IR receiver but that how-to will
give you a rough overview. If you have carte blanche but an existing
case then I would recommend an Antec Veris Basic IR receiver to start.
The are cheap and support all of the iMon codes. If you are looking for
a case then an Antec Fusion (or similar) will be good. From there add
lirc-0.8.6 and then it is just a matter of adding the right lircd.conf
and lircrc. The lirc library (e.g.
/home/youruser/lirc/lirc-0.8.6/remotes/imon/) has the correct iMon
lircd.conf files to get you going that maps to the standard lircrc
values. This will get you 90% of the way.
A couple of LinHES/Knoppmyth specific how-to's on the subject exist at:

or
http://knoppmyth.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=20754
depending on what you start with.
Hope that helps get you going.
