Thanks, I tried......but it already exits<br>
<br>
# ln -s /dev/lirc0 /dev/lirc<br>
ln: `/dev/lirc': File exists<br>
<br>
<br>
So I looked in /etc/sysconfig/lircd<br>
<br>
# Options to lircd<br>
LIRCD_OPTIONS=<br>
<br>
It's not pointing to anything. I think I have the same problem as<br>

<br>
By the way, during the installation I ran this:<br>
<br>
# tail -1 /etc/udev/rules.d/lirc.rules >
/etc/udev/rules.d/lirc.rules.tmp<br>
# mv /etc/udev/rules.d/lirc.rules.tmp /etc/udev/rules.d/lirc.rules<br>
# wget <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://svn.wilsonet.com/svn/mythtvology/trunk/rc.sysinit-mm.diff">https://svn.wilsonet.com/svn/mythtvology/trunk/rc.sysinit-mm.diff</a><br>
# patch /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit < rc.sysinit-mm.diff<br>
<br>
<br>
Which may have had an error during the wget line. I tried re-runing it
and it fails:<br>
<br>
