Almost - all of the lirc_serial lines you currently have go in
/etc/modprobe.d/lirc.conf, including the install and --ignore-install
lines (as these dicate what happens when the lirc_serial module is
loaded). A simple `/sbin/modprobe lirc_serial` would go in
/etc/sysconfig/modules/lirc.modules.

Cheers,
