Problem - Lirc don't work with serial receiver.

I was doing all the same things as described in wiki page.
It is:
-install lirc and lirc-utils
# setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
# modprobe lirc_serial

Then I tested it with '# mode2 -d /dev/lirc0' but there is no output. Then i typed 'sudo irrecord -d /dev/lirc0 my_remote' but output said:
irrecord: no data for 10 secs, aborting
irrecord: gap not found, can't continue

I can notice that my irda receiver is working under Ubuntu and Windows (with girder and IgorPlug) and also my harware is standard homemade serial connection irda receiver build by http://www.cesko.host.sk/girderplugin.htm few years ago.

Re: Problem - Lirc don't work with serial receiver.

I solved my problem by building new receiver (according to http://www.lirc.org/receivers.html).

The problem is with my old receiver. LIRC don't support Igor Cesko's receiver longer (since 0.8.5)
