With Mythbuntu irexec should be run automatically on login as soon as 
any irexec commands are added to your lirc config.  This works fine for 
me on 10.04

The script that actually does this is /usr/share/mythbuntu/session.sh 
(lines 26-33)

If you look at that code, it does a grep for irexec on ~/.lirc/* so as 
long as your irexec commands appear there, it should work.  If you've 
added the irexec commands to the top-level lirc config (~/.lircrc), they 
won't be picked up by this script.

thanks,
Alex
