   I tried running the line in boot.local, and it powered off my computer. 
So clearly this isn't a problem with the --daemon switch not working, it's 
probably a matter of boot.local being called before lircd starts.
   So where would be a better place to start irexec? I'm running Suse, and I 
don't quite know which order things get executed in.
