<div>Claude et al,</div>

<div>You might think I'm not impartial (since I'm the person who came up with those steps) but I've used those instructions literally dozens of times on my own myth boxes and many times on other peoples.</div>
<div>There are many things that can give you that error. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Have you looked at the troubleshooting section of <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://lircsetup.com/" target="_blank">lircsetup.com</a>?</div>

<div> </div>
<div>Make sure you have the correct kernel modules installed. </div>
<div>That how-to is a few months old, the versions have changed. Are you using the latest version?</div>
<div>Make sure you are using the com port that lirc thinks you are.</div>
<div>Make sure you are sending blaster commands to the correct port.</div>
<div>Make sure the sockets are being created. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you need some help figuring out what's wrong, send me your config files and I'll take a look.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>modprobe.conf<br>lircd.conf</div>
<div>channel change script<br>relevant lines in rc.local if your using it</div>
<div> </div>
<div> Good luck,</div>
