irw/lircd stops working after 3-6 key presses

[Mike K. <mik...@vx...>]

I have a tx1410us tabletpc running ubuntu 8.10 32-bit.

I have used stock lirc from distro and 8.4.a...and with both mceusb
dongles and iguanaIR prototype.

Using mode2 or iguana's diagnostics don't show anything out of the
ordinary...and they continue to work.

It's lircd that seems to fail after just a few presses.

I've looked for extra debug output/etc. but can't find anything.

This equipment works flawlessly under Vista or XP MCE.

I will try under Windows with WinLIRC perhaps just for laughs...but this
can't be my permanent solution.
