Description Daniel Kukula 2006-02-27 12:38:30 UTC

I think we should add a script that starts the irexec daemon at boot time, normally I need to run it manually and i'ts not the best solution so i've written this:

/etc/init.d/irexec

depend() {
        need lircd 
}

start() {
        ebegin "Starting irexec"
        /usr/bin/irexec --daemon ${IREXEC_OPTS}
        eend $?
}

stop() {
        ebegin "Stopping irexec"
        killall irexec
        eend $?
}



/etc/conf.d/irexec

# Options to pass to the irexec process
IREXEC_OPTS="/etc/lircrc"


and in /etc/lircrc i've put my ~/.lircrc file
