Try this : ps -A | grep 20076 If you get an output that looks something like : [username@host ~]$ ps -A | grep 20076 20076 ? 00:00:13 lircd [username@host ~]$ then lircd is already running. You could kill it with : kill -9 20076 then make sure the file /var/run/lircd/pid doesn't exist. if your output looks something like this : [username@host ~]$ ps -A | grep 20076 [username@host ~]$ Then the lircd process is not running, but that file says it is. Delete /var/run/lircd/pid.
