Hi,

I'm using R5A26 and I've been trying to set up an IR Blaster to change channels on my Dish Network receiver. I've been using the How-To at

http://losdos.dyndns.org:8080/public/my ... _LIRC.html

All of the compiling in stage 1 went relatively smoothly, and stage 2 was going well until I tried to install the ledxmit_serial module:

root@mythtv:/home/mythtv# /sbin/modprobe ledxmit_serial
FATAL: Error inserting ledxmit_serial (/lib/modules/2.6.13.2-chw-3/misc/ledxmit_serial.ko): Device or resource busy

I don't know too much about this but I'm guessing something is already using com1? I only have one serial port.

How do I troubleshoot this or work around it?

Thanks,

Jon

setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
or
setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none

depending on which com port you are using.

I tried that, but got the same result:

root@mythtv:/home/mythtv# /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
root@mythtv:/home/mythtv# /sbin/modprobe ledxmit_serial
FATAL: Error inserting ledxmit_serial (/lib/modules/2.6.13.2-chw-3/misc/ledxmit_serial.ko): Device or resource busy

Is there anything else it might be?

Did you do it for ttyS1? I seem to recall that it configured everything to use COM2 by default.

That's right, the tutorial is set up for ttyS1 - COM2. My motherboard only has one serial port, though, so I changed everything to use ttyS0 - COM1.

I just installed on R5A22 last week following those instructions. Even though the instructions give you some options to change to ttyS0 (Com1) if you only have 1 serial port, I found this didn't work - though I can't remember if I get hung up on exactly the same part as you.

So I started over, and modified the myth-ledxmit.sh installation script from this:


to this:



which are the port and irq settings for Com1 rather than Com2.

After that, it all went smoothly.

Thanks Lev,

That was the trick. Now I have everything loading smoothly and I'm up to step 4, testing. I'm having another difficulty here, but I'll post about that in a seperate thread.

Thanks again,

Jon
