Any guesses as to what could cause this? When I run lirc manually:

Code:
lircd -d  /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:13.1-usb-0\:2\:1.0-event


It works as expected. When I try to init it, I get:
Code:
/etc/init.d/lircd start
 * Starting lircd ...
ln: failed to create symbolic link `/dev/lircd': File exists                                                                                           [ ok ]
 * ERROR: lircd failed to start


I'm using the devinput on LIRC 0.9.0. Here's my conf.d/lircd:
Quote:

# Options to pass to the lircd process

# for devices with lirc-kernel-module
#LIRCD_OPTS="-d /dev/lirc0"
#LIRCD_OPTS="-d /dev/lirc"

# for devices using the input-layer
#LIRCD_OPTS="-H devinput -d /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:0a.0--event-ir"
# This should work, Bug #235107
#LIRCD_OPTS="-H devinput -d name=*DVB*"
LIRC_OPTS="-H devinput -d /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:13.1-usb-0\:2\:1.0-event"


Any suggestions?

Nevermind - a reboot solved it.

I have the same problem, but rebooting does not help.
