Following carefully Jared Wilson's instructions on the
site http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/, I have been trying to
set up MythTV under Fedora Core 6 on a Shuttle SB65G2
with a serial IR receiver that I purchased from
www.irblaster.info.
I followed Jared's instructions for a serial IR
receiver, e.g., put these statements in
/etc/modprobe.conf:
alias char-major-61 lirc_serial
options lirc_serial irq=4 io=0x3f8
install lirc_serial /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none ;\
/sbin/modprobe --ignore-install lirc_serial
When I then execute
/sbin/service lircd start
I don't see an OK, I just get a shell prompt again.
When I then activate the receiver with
/usr/bin/irw
to try it out, I get this error message:
connect: No such file or directory
Could someone give me some help to get irw working?
By the way, the Shuttle has only a single serial port
which I assume must be COM1.
Thanks,
Henry
