[mythtv-users] Getting creamed by lirc

Hello, I have a mceusb2 remote and dual blaster that has been working just
nicely (except for one of the blaster ports), and so i recently got a serial
blaster (to control my second cable box) for my ubuntu feisty setup. After
following the ubuntu instructions page located here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallLirc/Feisty, i now am unable to use
my remote at all. How great! The serial blaster works great though.
 
Furthermore, I can't change channels using the serial blaster in myth. When
the mceusb2 blaster worked, my channel change script worked great. I am able
to change channels by the command line, but my myth script doesn't work. So
basically, i can't use either of my cable boxes now. Also, we basically
can't use the mythbox since the remote doesn't work.
 
Attached are the following:
1. channel change script
2. /etc/lirc/hardware.conf file
3. /etc/init.d/lirc file
 
Please let me know what i'm doing wrong. I have been searching and searching
and trying all sorts of stuff. Nothing seems to work. Why is lirc so
difficult to get going?
 
Thanks so much for any help
