Hello, i am having 3 more problems.
1. How do i release the seial port on boot? I tried adding that line
to /etc/rc0.d/ec.local, but it dosen't seem to work.
2. Whenever i try chkconfig --level 35 i get  this message:

mythtv:/home/mythtv# chkconfig --level 35 lircd on
error reading information on service lircd: No such file or directory

3. Whenever i cant get my remote to control myth tv. When i run
irxexec it says it's giving me the right commands, but just nothing
happens in myth.

Thanks again for all the help.
