[mythtv-users] lirc problems

[Jon Kunze]

I'm having this same problem on a fresh FC4 install. When I reboot, lircd is
dead, and the only think I've found to get it running again without
crashing, is to remove and then reinstall via yum. Then, when you reboot,
it's dead again and you repeat. Has anyone had this problem, or found a
solution?
