This may not be it, but ls a "ls -l /dev/li*" I think you want to see these devices:
/dev/lircd /dev/lirc0 /dev/lirc However, /dev/lirc may not exist, so I had to run "ln -s /dev/lirc0 /dev/lirc" to create a link to lirc0. This seemed important for me (I compiled lirc from source), so I added that into the script that starts lircd. --- Neil Davidson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [already posted this to the LIRC mailing list, but got no replies] > > I'm having problems getting lirc to run under FC4.
