<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=910543514-02052005>I am able to run
mode2 as root and get output, I can run irrecord (had to use -f for my remote),
and can cat /dev/lirc and see a bunch of crap whenever i press buttons on the
remote. BUT when i try and run irw, i get "cannot connect." I have a feeling
that it is related to starting the lircd service...when I try and start it using
the "services" program, I get "unable to start. error was:" with no indication
as to what happened. checking /var/log/messages doesn't seem to reveal anything
interesting... :-/</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
