<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Thanks to a resurgence of intermittent failures at boot-up time, I am trying again to figure out what is going wrong, but I'm getting nowhere. Any help would be appreciated in understanding how things happen so I can figure out what doesn't happen and why.<br>
<br></div><div>I am still using MythBuntu 10.04, and this problem has now taken priority over my attempts to migrate to MythBuntu 12.04 for the time being.<br></div><div><br></div>I have a USB IR transceiver from IguanaWorks which supports (up to) 4 independent transmitters and a receiver. I have this tied to Comcast DTAs and everything works (most of the time).<br>
<br></div>This involves the non-kernel version of LIRC, a driver for the IguanaWorks transceiver, and a daemon from IguanaWorks, igdaemon.<br><br></div>Whether everything works or not, I can find no evidence of a driver loaded to support the transceiver by looking at the output of "modprobe -l | less", so maybe it is getting handled by some other means I don't know about. Any advice with that would be appreciated.<br>
<br></div>I have loaded the init script for launching igdaemon with echo commands to report on states and variable values, and bumped up the verbosity setting for it, but these have not (yet?) yielded any clues.<br><br></div>
I have also loaded the init script for lirc with echo commands and that has not helped yet, either.<br><br></div>I have even looked at the udev rule for the IguanaWorks transceiver, but that didn't shed any light on the problem.<br>
<br></div>The only clue I have so far is that when there's a failure, the device file /dev/iguanaIR/0 is missing, although the directory /dev/iguanaIR was successfully created by the udev rule.<br><br></div>I have been unable to figure out what creates the device file and why it sometimes fails to do so.<br>
<br></div>Any advice?<br><br>--<br></div>Craig.<br></div>
