Multiple lirc devices.

[Mark J. <mje...@gm...>]

I currently have 2 lirc devices installed in my Fedora 10 server.

The problem that I am having, is that they keep flipping back and
forth, and I have to constantly change my /etc/sysconfig/lirc to point
to the correct device.

I tried to specify index=# in modprobe.conf, but it doesn't like that option.

What is the proper way to have them stay in the right order?

I found a webpage that mentions to do it like this:

lircd --driver=irman --device=/dev/lirc --pidfile=/var/run/lirc.pid
--listen=9988
lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc1
--pidfile=/var/run/lirc1.pid --listen=9987
lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --output=/dev/lircd
--pidfile=/var/run/lirc0.pid --connect=localhost:9988
--connect=localhost:9987

Is that the perferred way to do this?  Is there a better way?

Thanks!
