Part of fixing ir blaster in 6.03 requires adding four lines in the command line.
These don't survive a reboot, and need to be added again after each reboot.

I tried putting them in /etc/runit/1.local

which indicates this is the place for add-ons:....

#!/bin/bash
#local user startup script, run at the end of runit 1

but they don't work and still have to be put it with the command line ?? ...

What have I figured wrong ?

Perhaps you are running them too early in the boot process. I have successfully added initialization commands to the fluxbox startup. Create a script with the four commands. Let's call it /home/mythtv/fix_irblaster.sh. Then edit /home/mythtv/.fluxbox/apps and add a line like this:

I would put it before LinHES-run, but you may have to try it before and after to find out which place works best.

Failing that, you could hand edit /usr/LH/bin/LinHES-run. I have two edits (comment out unclutter and use launch_irx.sh instead of irexec) in that file that I have been using to make my life easier.
