I see two potential areas that might be causing this. Please undo the current hacks (and set START_LIRCD to true) and try these (one at a time):
1) The udev rules for LIRC. Can you please try to comment them out (they're in /lib/udev/rules.d) and reboot? 2) The upstart job mount-varrun is racing with the init script. Try adding a sleep statement at the beginning of the init script for a few second and see if that helps. This isn't a proper solution, but if it fixes it then switching to an upstart drop will help. -- Can't start lirc: "lircd: can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/474701 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
