<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Joe,<br>
It's been years since I've used serial with lirc because it always
gave me headaches... I think you'll be better off with the ftdi
one when it comes, I've just started using a ftdi receiver
(homemade) and found it surprisingly easy to set up.<br>
Compiling from source as you've done should certainly fix most of
the serial driver issues however, that's what I always had to do.
<br>
<br>
What version of lirc were you using on the old box, if it was
older it may have had some slight config difference (shooting in
the dark here though).<br>
<br>
Are you certain you're on
/dev/ttyS0? <br>
<br>
I see the scripts are supposed to be doing the setserial stuff,
have you verified that it's working correctly?<br>
I'd also check if irq=4 is still correct on your new hardware.<br>
<code># setserial -g /dev/ttyS0</code><br>
will tell you if the irq is correct and should say if the uart
none line in the scripts worked.<br>
<br>
Might be worth checking any com port settings in bios too to
ensure there's nothing set awry.<br>
<br>
Good Luck,<br>
Andrew<br>

Has anyone had any issues with a Lirc serial blaster with CentOS?
<br>
<br>
I currently replaced my old box circa 2007. And cannot get the
lirc serial
<br>
blaster to work.. I was able to get mysql/mythfrontend/schedules
direct
<br>
to work. However this Lirc blaster issue has me in a rut.
<br>
<br>
Please See the following URL's for my steps in troubleshooting..
<br>
<br>
CentOS 6.3 on a Intel board H77 chipset.
