[mythtv-users] Lircd at startup

[Roger Obando]

I think I've narrowed it down to this line of my lircd file...
 
touch /var/lock/subsys/lircd 

viewing permissions on this file it appears that mythtv has only read privileges and only root has write privileges.  If i try to add write permissions to this file and reboot it resets to the original permissions.
 
Anybody have any ideas?

	No errors, but is it actually running? (ie, ps -aux | grep lircd). If not, check the log..
	 
	I assume you have an init script for it, so try running that manually and if it doesn't immediately die,  tail -f /var/log/lircd .. see what happens when you start up mythfrontend..

	I have a quick question…it seems to me that my Lircd daemon doesn’t start up correctly at boot time.  It’s strange because I don’t get any errors on boot and it tells me the daemon starts fine.  If I try to use my remote (from a pvr350) with myth nothing happens unless if I login as root and start up the service manually.  Anybody have any ideas?
