Hi,

I installed lircd according to the 2005-01-10 version of Jarod's guide.

I notice there is no /dev/lirc.

One should create a symbolic link called /dev/lirc that points to
/dev/lirc0

Before:
crw-------  1 root root 61, 0 Jan 12 22:25 /dev/lirc0
srw-rw-rw-  1 root root     0 Jan 12 22:07 /dev/lircd

After:
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     5 Jan 12 22:47 lirc -> lirc0
crw-------  1 root root 61, 0 Jan 12 22:29 lirc0
srw-rw-rw-  1 root root     0 Jan 12 22:47 lircd

Hugo.
