Hell YEAH!!
/etc/systemd/system/lircd.service
[Unit]
Description=LIRC Daemon
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=forking
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/lircd.conf
PIDFile=/run/lirc/lircd.pid
ExecStartPre=/bin/mkdir -p /run/lirc
ExecStartPre=/bin/rm -f /dev/lircd
ExecStartPre=/bin/rm -f /run/lirc/lircd
ExecStartPre=/bin/ln -s /run/lirc/lircd /dev/lircd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/lircd -d $LIRC_DEVICE -P /run/lirc/lircd.pid -H $LIRC_DRIVER $LIRC_CONFIGFILE
ExecStopPost=/bin/rm -f /dev/lircd
ExecStopPost=/bin/rm -fR /run/lirc
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
In addition it seems i loaded the wrong driver.
/etc/conf.d/lircd.conf
LIRC_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"
LIRC_DRIVER="default"
#LIRC_MODULES="ir-kbd-i2c lirc_dev"
#LIRC_MODULES="lirc_i2c lirc_dev"
LIRC_EXTRAOPTS=""
LIRC_CONFIGFILE="/etc/lirc/lircd.conf"
/etc/modules-load.d/lirc.conf
#ir-kbd-i2c
lirc_i2c
lirc_dev
so /dev/lirc0 gets created (did it over /dev/input)
Thank you soo much -> moving forward to xbmc mappings (8
