[mythtv] OT: Ivtv and Lirc 2.6 patch

[Jeff Clark]

Slightly off topic, but may be of interest to some of you who would like 
to run Mythtv on Linux 2.6 (as I do).

Two patches available from: http://www.clarkmania.com/~jclark/

Linux 2.6 kernel patch adds lirc support.  Based on an old patch 
floating around which did not port the lirc_i2c module needed by the 
Hauppage cards.  I've cleaned up the module, added i2c support and added 
lirc_dev module support (was static only in previous patch).

Ivtv patch for linux 2.6.  Applies cleanly (hopefully) to the current 
CVS checkout.  I have only tested building it against linux 2.6 test9. 
Seems to work just fine with my Hauppauge PVR-250 and MythTV.  Ivtv 
includes a msp3400 module, but linux 2.6 includes a newer version which 
you should use.  Actually, I did not port the ivtv one so you'll have to 
use the module included with the kernel :)

Happy Hacking!
