I am installing Mythtv on Gentoo Linux. I am using a VIA EPIA M10000<br>with a PVR-350 for hardware. I can't seem to get lirc working right.<br>I've followed evry howto I can find for Mythtv and this<br>hardware/software, searched the archives, and monitored this list, but I
<br>can't find an answer.<br><br>I've loaded the modules and got lircd.conf setup correctly (I think),<br>but I don't get a character device /dev/lirc0, instead I get a<br>/dev/lirc/0. Irrecord works OK, but irw errors out with "Connection
<br>refused". I tried giving it /dev/lirc/0 as a socket with the same<br>results. I tried a symlink /dev/lirc0-> /dev/lirc/0 with the same results.<br><br>

Try changing the LIRCD_OPTS line in /etc/conf.d/lircd to read:<br>
<br>
LIRCD_OPTS="-d /dev/lirc/0"<br>
<br>
Then, issue the following command to restart lircd:<br>
<br>
/etc/init.d/lircd restart<br>
