This is probably a false error. The restart works, but reports a failure due to a race condition between loading modules and start-stop- daemon. If you look at the process list, "lircd" is probably running.
Mario: The fix to this is to change /etc/init.d/lirc to pass --oknodo to start-stop-daemon. ** Changed in: lirc (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- /etc/init.d/lirc restart fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441151 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
