[mythtv-users] IRW not connecting to LIRCD

[mythtv at cxdonline.com]

ok, I added this line to /etc/rc.d/init.d/lircd

LIRCD_OPTIONS="--device /dev/ttyUSB0"

I restarted the lircd and ran irw, tailed /var/log/messages and got this:

mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: lircd(any) ready
mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: could not get hardware features
mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: this device driver does not support the
new LIRC interface
mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: major number of /dev/ttyUSB0 is 188
mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: LIRC major number is 61
mythtv-server lircd-0.7.1[7623]: check if /dev/ttyUSB0 is a LIRC device

thanks,
steve
