The last note in this bug is five years old, end both the kernel and
lirc startup sequence is heavily changed. Could you please test this bug
on upcoming zesty and lirc0.9.4c if you are still interested in this
bug?

Setting status to Incomplete, since without input on status on current
code we cannot triage this bug.

When testing, the primary test tool is mode2 - using that with correct
--driver and --device should reveal if this problem in in the kernel or
in lircd. Please also raise the lircd loglevel to 'trace' and submit the
lircd logs.

** Changed in: lirc (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete

Title:
  imon driver (or IT87 driver) does not work, irw crashes lircd

Status in lirc package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lirc

  Description:    Ubuntu 8.10
  Release:        8.10
  lirc 0.8.3-0ubuntu2 Linux Infra-red Remote Control support

  When I run irw it simply exits the 1st time without any message, the
  second time it errors and the lirc daemon crashes.

  root@mediapc:~# /etc/init.d/lirc restart

  root@mediapc:~# /etc/init.d/lirc restart

  * Loading LIRC modules [ OK ]
  * Starting remote control daemon(s) : LIRC [ OK ]
  I do not have a /dev/lirc0 but I do have /dev/lircd.
  Running irw /dev/lircd does not help.

  Mode 2 errors:

  root@mediapc:~# mode2
  mode2: error opening /dev/lirc
  mode2: No such file or directory
