"couldnt Connect To Socket!"

[victorhooi]

Hi,

I'm trying to get opie remote to work on my recently flashed zaurus, and on startup, and every time you click a remote button, it comes up with:

"couldnt connect to socket!"

I'm using OZ 3.5.3 (Opie), and I've installed the following packages on top of the vanilla opie rom:

lirc 0.7
lirc-modules 0.7
opie-help-en 1.2.0
opie-help-en-locale 1.2.0
opie-remote 1.2.0
opie-remote-help-en 1.2.0

Also, once I've managed to get opie-remote to work, how exactly do I go about using it? (sorry, I'm new to all this ) I need a lirc.conf for my remote, right? (I know www.lirc.org has some - other sources?).

Also, what if I want to control multiple devices (eg dvd/vcr/tv etc.) - can I merge the different lirc.conf's together? Finally, how do I go about creating a lirc.conf for my own devices - is there a learning mode in lirc/opie-remote?

Thanks,
Victor
