</div>You don't have a /dev/lirc. Do you have a /dev/lirc0? If you do,<br>
update your LIRC config to use the correct device name (/dev/lirc0)<br>
and restart lircd. (Alternatively you can use a udev rule to create<br>
the /dev/lirc symlink automatically when /dev/lirc0 is created.)<br>

</div>What modprobe options (if any) are you specifying for the lirc_serial module?<br>
