Binary package hint: lirc
I installed ubuntu 9.10 on my AMD X64 box and all is running fine.
But I currently stuck on starting the LIRC service. It fails with

When I start
/usr/sbin/lircd -H dev/input -d /dev/input/event5 -n
and in another shell "irw" I can see the key presses of the remote well returned.
I have no further idea why the service fail to start. No related messages are reported in the syslog.
Please find the hardware.conf and lircd.conf together with uname -a
and package information below.

Michael
