Is this how it is included in your rc.d file?

To keep things separate, copy the LIRC config for the blaster into a
separate file (called something like /etc/lirc/blaster.conf)

Enter the following on a single line as:

-- cut --
/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc1 --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd1
--pidfile=/var/run/lirc/lircd1.pid /etc/lirc/blaster.conf
-- cut --

and check the syslog after boot to check for any lircd output.

If you do get a lird1 socket, try running irsend with the socket (your
socket needs write permissions for irsend to work).

Cheers,
Nick
