When I run
Code: ls /dev/lirc* I get the following:
Code: /dev/lirc /dev/lirc1 /dev/lircd /dev/lircm
When I run Code: lircd -n I get the following:
Code: lircd-0.8.0pre4-pvr150[6302]: lircd(all) ready
I think the fact the irw is killing lircd is an important one. I did a little searching around and ran into other people that had problems like this. One notable one was the following:

In the last step it suggests to do the following:
Quote: That is one way to fix the problem. Another way is to start lircd using lircd -d /dev/lirc0 I had the same problem and that's how I fixed it.
When I tried:
Code: lircd -d /dev/lirc1 the same problem occured, with irw killing
lircd.
Another thing that I am thinking about. Above it was mentioned by doc holywood to Quote: I also had to change /etc/init.d/lirc
from:
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/lircd -- $LIRCD_ARGS \
to:
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/lircd \
I was unable to find the line in my lirc file. Here is the contents of my file:
