Sometimes my IR remote starts work incorrectly. To fix it I must went to another room then run ssh client and execute 2 sudo-commands. How to map these commands to one button of my remote?

Edit the file for your config in /etc/lirc/hardware/ and set START_IREXEC=false to START_IREXEC=true

If I use GPIO reciever, I have to change the /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf, right?
Now it looks like that
It works when I starts the irexec manually. But autostart doesnt work.
Now it looks like that
Terminal
xbian@xbian ~ $ cat /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf
# /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf
#
# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd
LIRCD_ARGS="-u"
#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file
#START_LIRCMD=false
#Don't start irexec, even if a good config file seems to exist.
START_IREXEC=true
#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES=true
# Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers.
DRIVER="default"
# usually /dev/lirc0 is the correct setting for systems using udev
DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
MODULES="lirc_rpi"
# Default configuration files for your hardware if any
#LIRCD_CONF=""
#LIRCMD_CONF=""
# /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf
#
# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd
LIRCD_ARGS="-u"
#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file
#START_LIRCMD=false
#Don't start irexec, even if a good config file seems to exist.
START_IREXEC=true
#Try to load appropriate kernel modules
LOAD_MODULES=true
# Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers.
DRIVER="default"
# usually /dev/lirc0 is the correct setting for systems using udev
DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
MODULES="lirc_rpi"
# Default configuration files for your hardware if any
#LIRCD_CONF=""
#LIRCMD_CONF=""
Terminal
xbian@xbian ~ $ cat .lircrc
begin
prog = irexec
button = key_open/close
config = sudo /home/xbian/irrestart.sh &
end
begin
prog = irexec
button = key_open/close
config = sudo /home/xbian/irrestart.sh &
end
Terminal
xbian@xbian ~ $ cat irrestart.sh
#!/bin/bash
service lirc stop
sleep 3
service lirc start
#!/bin/bash
service lirc stop
sleep 3
service lirc start
It works when I starts the irexec manually. But autostart doesnt work.

It should work like this, can help you further, sorry.

Should I create a bugreport on the github page?
18th Apr, 2013, 05:05 PM
No, because i got it working perfectly here. So it must be something in your config that we don't see.
18th Apr, 2013, 05:54 PM
Ok, then is somewhere any log that can show me what happens?
