I'm trying to run MythTV (0.18 updates from apt-get) on FC3. I have just about everything working now except my IR Blaster. When I set it up according to:I have the same environment although I've not used the above instructions.... I just gave them a quick look and it's similar to the solution I've come up with but not identical.
<http://www.lircsetup.com/lirc/blaster/index.php>
Here's my environment:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# uname -r 2.6.11-1.14_FC3 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# rpm -qa | grep lirc lirc-devices-0.7.0-1.rhfc3.at lirc-lib-0.7.1-46.rhfc3.at lirc-0.7.1-46.rhfc3.at lirc-kmdl-2.6.11-1.14_FC3-0.7.1-46.rhfc3.at [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]#
I'm the same, except that I have to Kernel Modules, in addition to lirc-kmdl-2.6.11-1.14_FC3-0.7.1-46.rhfc3.at, I also have lirc-kmdl-2.6.10-1.770_FC3-0.7.1-46.rhfc3.at
# for power button and other external to myth stuff nohup /usr/bin/irexec >> /dev/null 2>&1 &
I'm assuming I can skip this step since I'm not worried too much about the power button at the moment.
# for IR Blaster on ttyS0 setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none modprobe lirc_serial lircd --pidfile=/var/run/lircd1.pid --device=/dev/lirc1 --output=/dev/lircd1
modprobe gave me the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# modprobe lirc_serial
FATAL: Error inserting lirc_serial (/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.14_FC3/updates/drivers/lirc/lirc_serial.ko): Device or resource busy
Then,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lircd --pidfile=/var/run/lircd1.pid --device=/dev/lirc1 --output=/dev/lircd1
lircd 0.7.1: there seems to already be a lircd process with pid 4055
lircd 0.7.1: otherwise delete stale lockfile /var/run/lircd1.pid
I hope this info helps. If you can't make sense of this, I can probably step you through some diagnostics. We can start with the output of:

Whenever I uncomment the references to char-major-61-0, -1, and the assosciated lines, my remote control stops working. As it sits now, I have a working remote control, just the IR blaster won't work.
