lirc-setup complained that I wasn't a member of the group 'lirc'.  The error message told me to do the following


$ sudo usermod -aG lirc troy
[sudo] password for troy: 
usermod: group 'lirc' does not exist
$ sudo groupadd lirc
$ sudo usermod -aG lirc troy

However, I still have this problem:

$ mode2
Using driver devinput on device auto
Cannot initiate device /dev/input/event3


in lirc-setup, I clicked "use default driver..." and then "Test" and was told that I need to use the group "video"


$ sudo usermod -aG video troy

Now, after the same steps, I'm told to

$ cat /sys/class/rc/rc0/protocols 
rc-5 nec [rc-6] jvc sony rc-5-sz sanyo sharp mce_kbd xmp imon rc-mm [lirc]

$ sudo /bin/sh -c "echo lirc > /sys/class/rc/rc0/protocols"
