I am being seriously dumb here but please someone just put me out of my misery.

I have a working Mythtv setup on a Pundit-R (FC3 using Jarod's guide PVR-350 connected to SKY Grundig digibox)

I bought a red_eye remote to allow channel changing on the SKy digibox and donwloaded the linux driver, but this has never worked.

I run the command [EMAIL PROTECTED] Softlib]$ ./red_eye /dev/ttyS0 1004 2
Opening port for /dev/ttyS0 and setting RTS
RTS bit set ok
Writing data ("1004") now
write() of  bytes failed!
Data Written....
Sleeping for 2 seconds ....
.. Start close... Finished

What am I doing wrong here?

I'm afraid it's not directly answering your question, but myself and other people on the list have found the controllers described here:

far more reliable and easier to use than any infra-red based solution.

[Disclaimer: I am the author of the above page, and designed this controller myself for use with my mythtv setup.]
