Hi,
 I'm having problems getting my IR blaster to work, I have followed the very 
good instructions at http://www.lircsetup.com/lirc/blaster/index.php to 
setup my mythtv box to control my SKY TV box (Thomson DSI4212). I'm using 
FC3 and running mythtv18.1 on a pundit-r using a PVR250 (setup using Jarod's 
excellent guide). I have everything else working including the the remote 
for mythtv but I can't get the IR blaster to change channel! The red LED 
flashes when I try to change channel so I know it is on the correct COM port 
but I get this output: 

[root at localhost ~]# /usr/local/bin/change_chan.sh 120
/usr/local/bin/change_chan.sh: line 8: /root: is a directory
/usr/local/bin/change_chan.sh: line 9: /root: is a directory

srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Jul 14 15:08 /dev/lircd 
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Jul 14 15:08 /dev/lircd1

Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Any help you could provide 
would be most welcome as apart from this I have a fully working MythTV box. 
Thanks in advance 
 Steve
