[mythtv-users] Lirc broken again

[Phill Edwards]

I think I've fixed this. The problem was that with the upgrade (using
yum update), there was a new kernel installed as well as a new version
of lirc. The default kernel to boot in grub, however, was the OLD
kernel not the new one, so the machine was booting up the old kernel
which I presume is incompatible in some way with the new version of
lirc. Now that I've forced it to boot into the new kernel, lirc is
working again.

For the record my versions are:
    kernel - 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686
    lirc - 0.8.6-6.fc12

Hope that helps anyone else who runs into this.

Regards,
Phill
