RE: FW: Cannot install GIRS driver

Ok, sorry - I have to get used to this mailing list, so please indulge me
:-)

What I did now: I removed EVERYTHING LIRC and reinstalled to get to a
defined state.

cd /tmp
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/lirc/lirc-0.9.4d.tar.bz2
tar -jxf lirc-0.9.4d.tar.bz2
cd lirc-0.9.4d
aclocal && autoheader && autoconf
./configure --prefix=/usr
make && sudo make install

lirc_options.conf  was created in /usr/etc/lirc. I set the loglevel to debug
using loglevel = debug.

I tested this first, it returns an error:

lircd -d /dev/ttyUSB0
Warning: cannot open /etc/lirc/lirc_options.conf
can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid: No such file or directory

The directory it looks for lirc_options.conf does not match the directory
lirc_options.conf is created in. Shall I just create /etc/lirc and MOVE
everything in /usr/etc/lirc to this directory?

After that I would continue with the next steps....

Thank you and cheers...

First: please don't top-post - the archives becomes a mess.

Secondly: we need to inspect the lircd logs. Raise the loglevel to at least
'debug' in lirc_options.conf, run the same irsend command and post the logs.

By default, lircd logs to syslog; where this actually ends up depends on
your platform. You can also define a logfile, see lircd(8).



Cheers!
