Re: lirc 0.7.1

[Dirk g. O. <tu...@gm...>]

In addition to my previous post I need to teel that lirc also doesn't
work with a homebrew serial-connectior and also not with an Aopen EA65
(both configured via setup.sh). No /dev/lirc*-devices get created, only
the /dev/lircd= socket-file is there, when lircd starts  :(
