[mythtv-users] IRBlaster Progress; more questions

[Matt Morgan]

This is a continuation of the issue at

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/77728?search_string=remoted;#77728

Sorry for starting a new thread ... I just accidentally lost my mail 
from the last week or so, so I can't just reply to the existing message.
--------
Thanks to Mike for the response! That lead me to make some progress. 
remoted was not running, although I had been starting it in 
/etc/init.d/local with the following lines:

echo "Starting remoted ..."
setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none
/sbin/modprobe remote_sir
/usr/local/sbin/remoted

I think whenever I ran channel_change.sh, remoted crashed! Because when 
I looked for it with ps ax|grep remoted, it was never there.

What's interesting, and I think is progress, is that when I commented 
those lines in /etc/init.d/local, but ran them from an xterm, 
channel_change.sh started working (I think--but I have a Scientific 
Atlanta 2100, which I see now is kind of a problem child). At least, I 
got no errors and I could see the LED's on the IR Blaster flashing.

So I think I'm having the issue where remoted can't connect to the X 
socket, as in

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/27190

because when it starts that X socket is not there, or different from the 
one that's running after mythtv logs in and everything starts up. Can I 
fix this somehow? Unforunately, in the above posting the discussion was 
not carried through to a solution.

Thanks,
Matt
