[mythtv-users] DTA100 and irblasting

[Scott]

Ok im still stuck with lirc_serial getting control of the serial port, 
Heres a summary of where im at.

I have 3 methods to blast with: pvr150, pvrusb2 (HVR-1950), and COM1.
Im currently trying to use the serial port method (lirc_serial) and what 
a pain.
If anyone has anything working with opensuse 11.X (im running 11.2) that 
can transmit via IR, please post the details.
Im running lirc 0.8.6 from a repo called vdr
Index of /repositories/vdr/openSUSE_11.2 
<http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/vdr/openSUSE_11.2>

Heres where im at with lirc_serial:
Code:

modprobe lirc_serial

Code:

dmesg | grep lirc
[   31.396636] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61
[   31.617612] lirc_i2c: chip 0x10020 found @ 0x71 (Hauppauge PVR150)
[   31.617623] lirc_dev: lirc_register_driver: sample_rate: 10
[  107.621021] lirc_serial: port 03f8 already in use
[  107.621038] lirc_serial: use 'setserial /dev/ttySX uart none'
[  107.621046] lirc_serial: or compile the serial port driver as module and
[  107.621054] lirc_serial: make sure this module is loaded first
[  156.728104] lirc_serial: auto-detected active high receiver
[  156.728128] lirc_dev: lirc_register_driver: sample_rate: 0
[  156.728253] lirc_serial $Revision: 5.104 $ registered

Ive tried to run (with 0,1,2)
Code:

setserial /dev/ttySX uart none

but it doesnt seem to have any effect. Some research seem to say that 
has to be run before the kernel loads its serial module. Thats fixed by 
doing stuff in /etc/modprobe.d. Ive tried putting things in there, but 
nothing has worked.
Most guides are 10.X and the configuration appears to have changed to 
separate files?
