Title:
lirc needs an upstart init script
Status in lirc package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: lirc
lirc should probably be started before gdm so that you can use the
autologin feature of gdm and get a working lirc. Right now I have to
restart gdm or logout/login to make lirc work on my dedicated mythtv
machine.
