I'm doing a fresh install of 12.04LTS with a 'sudo apt-get
upgrade' everything. At that point I install lirc and get it
working fine. I have the right hardware.conf and I can see
all the key presses working fine using irw. I'm using a
Hauppauge PVR-150 card and the IR receiver/remote that comes
with that. Everything is fine. All is good with the world. I
can issue sudo service lirc restart and it works as
expected. <br>
<br>
Then randomly after a reboot everything stops. irw simply
says connect: No such file or directory. If I try to do
anything with lirc, either 'sudo service lirc stop' or 'sudo
apt-get purge lirc' then the session hangs. Nothing. Even
reboots start to hang. All I get is a message on the screen
saying 'acpid: exiting Checking for running
unattended-upgrades:'. <br>
