MythTV Users,
I've followed the instructions for installing LIRC on Feisty Fawn as
described here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_Lirc_Feisty
It all seems to go very well, except near the end. When I type in "irw",
the prompt comes back immediately.
The HowTo says that if this happens, that a module hasn't been
installed. I went over the instructions again to be sure, and rebooted.
But same results.
It suggests to check "dmesg" to see what modules aren't installing.
However, to my novice eyes, I can't tell by scanning the results of
dmesg if there's anything related to LIRC. There is an IVTV section
which, so far as I can tell, reports a successful loading of IVTV
drivers for my Hauppauge card.
But beyond that, I'm lost as to how to diagnose the problem.
Are there any suggestions as to what I can do to diagnose this?
