Package: irda-utils Severity: wishlist Some irda controllers (like mine...) need to be initialize with /usr/sbin/smcinit provided with irda-utils. I didn't notice an automatic way to execute smcinit during the boot so I modified /etc/init.d/irda-utils and /etc/default/irda-utils. Here is a patch with my corrections.
I believe /etc/default/irda-utils shouldn't be modified with a patch but with debconf or something like that but it is far from my competences. Feel free to improve my idea. Best Regards, -- Jean-Christophe Jaskula
