LIRC daemon doesn't start
« on: June 18, 2010, 01:09:08 pm »
Hi,

Could somebody post a command to start lircd. You can see it by running ps command:
Code: [Select]
ps -elf|grep -i lircdBecause by some reason it doesn't start on my core anymore. I have iMON PAD remote and VFD display. LCDProc works fine but LRIC - not.

Thanks in advance.

By some reason device /dev/lirc is not created. The module lirc_imon is loaded without any error:
Code: [Select]
linuxmce@dcerouter:~$ sudo modprobe -v lirc_imon
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/updates/dkms/lirc_dev.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/updates/dkms/lirc_imon.ko
and lsmod:
Code: [Select]
linuxmce@dcerouter:~$ lsmod |grep lirc
lirc_imon              22796  0
lirc_dev               20020  1 lirc_imon
usbcore               149616  6 lirc_imon,imon,ohci_hcd,ehci_hcd
The weird thing is that. /dev/lcd0 exists and VFD display works. But both IR sensor and VFD display use the same module.
Any idea how to fix that?
