Bug Description
Binary package hint: lirc
Hi. I've been using LIRC with a serial port receiver since Feisty came out. My ttyS0 was configured at a non-standard port and IRQ, so I had to fill that out in /etc/lirc/
I had to work around it by changing the settings in my BIOS, but this behavior may prevent receivers plugged in ttyS1-4 and anything non-standard to work.
Thanks.

Actually this can be modified. You will need to setup modprobe options similar to http:// osdir.com/ ml/hardware. lirc/2005- 11/msg00044. html d/lirc. In it, add a line like this:
This can be achieved by creating a file /etc/modprobe.
options lirc_serial io=0x2f8 irq=3
rmmod and modprobe lirc_serial again, and you will have it using a different port.
