[mythtv-users] Anyone with 2.6.x kernel and hauppauge IRreceiver working?

[Adam Lewandowski]

Can you run irw and see output when you press buttons on the remote?
When I upgraded to kernel 2.6 I had to change several things to use devfs. I
tbink lirc may have been one of them. It was looking for /dev/lirc and with
devfs it ends up in /dev/lirc/lirc0. I don't have my notes handy, but I'll
check them when I get home.
