LIRC won't restart on Oneiric

[Michael W. <wi...@gm...>]

Hi!

I'm having a strange problem on xbmcbuntu where LIRC won't reload.
It's running lirc 0.9.0 x86, and when I stop the lirc daemon and start
it back up again, it says this....


 * Loading LIRC modules
                                                             [ OK ]
 * Unable to load LIRC kernel modules. Verify your
 * selected kernel modules in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf


When the machine first boots, it works fine and loads lircd.  If I
restart the service with the init.d script is when it fails, but I can
manually start it back up with this....

/usr/sbin/lircd --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0

If I mod the /etc/init.d/lirc script so it looks like this at the beginning....

	if $MODULES_MISSING; then
		log_failure_msg "Unable to load LIRC kernel modules. Verify your"
		log_failure_msg "selected kernel modules in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf"
		START_LIRCMD=true
		START_LIRCD=true
	fi

instead of the original two original "=false" lines, it seems like
things work better.

Has anybody run into this problem?  I found an old bugtraq for ubuntu,
but this was going back to the 10.04 (possibly) lirc client, and not
the Oneiric 11.10 one.


Thanks,
Mike
