I can validate this bug exists: r...@eros:/etc/lirc# lircd -H iguanaIR -n lircd-0.8.6[3480]: could not open config file '/etc/lirc//lirc/lircd.conf' lircd-0.8.6[3480]: No such file or directory lircd-0.8.6[3480]: lircd(iguanaIR) ready, using /var/run/lirc/lircd
Two possible workarounds: 1. Explicitly calling the remote file as such: r...@eros:/etc/lirc# lircd -H iguanaIR -n /etc/lircd/apple_remote2.conf lircd-0.8.6[3489]: lircd(iguanaIR) ready, using /var/run/lirc/lircd 2. Copy the explicit remote file to lircd.conf and calling it directly as shown above. I've tried the following without success soft linking the explicit_remote with the lircd.conf - this gives you same error as above It appears you must do this for lircd to work. -- default config file directory is wrong for lircd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/591441 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
