that's strange, what kind of hardware do you use? > > With irw I have no output... > I delete the lircd device a I create a sys link to ttyS0 but... > I have a doubt: What can I do to test if my serial port works? > Probabily the problem is there... well, a problem I had was I had serial support compiled in the kernel, so the lirc driver couldn't use it. Try using setserial to release it (I don't recall the exact command, but it's somewhere in lirc's docs) and only then load lirc. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but /dev/lircd is a way for the client programs to connect to the lirc daemon, it shouldn't be a link to the serial port. The lirc driver(what I thought was only a kernel module, or compiled in) should create /dev/lirc/0 or /dev/lirc0, and you should run lircd with that as the parameter. Also, mode2 doesn't need lircd, it reads signals directly from the lirc driver (/dev/lirc0 or /dev/lirc/0), > Now the server doesn't crash but it doesn't work... > Luigi hope that was helpful > > -- > Public key GPG(0x073A0960) on http://keyserver.linux.it/ > > > -- Rafael Dantas de Castro Engenharia de Computação 2001 - Unicamp - Laboratório de Criptografia Aplicada "Se procurar bem você acaba encontrando.
