Hi.
I installed Lirc on my Ubuntu 7.04 system and now I'm trying to configure it.
I installed it following the guide at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_Lirc_Feisty.
I compiled the Lirc modules with module-assistant and I configured
/etc/lirc/hardware.conf to automatically load the lirc_dev and
lirc_serial modules at the system startup.
Lirc_dev loads without problems, but when I try to modprobe
lirc_serial I get this error in the syslog:
Aug 8 21:42:05 camera kernel: [ 1668.073688] kobject_add failed for
lirc_serial.0 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things
with the same name in the same directory.

Aug 8 21:42:05 camera kernel: [ 1668.074397] =======================
I didn't understand what is the problem, as the module compilation
process ended without any error.
I'm using the "2.6.20-15-generic" kernel.
Could you help me, please?
Thank you very much!
Bye.
