[mythtv-users] Need help with supporting iguanaIR in upgrade from ubuntu 10.04 to ubuntu 14.04

[Craig Huff]

Thanks for the feedback Hika and George!  In the end, I ran out of time and
had to revert for now.

My confusion started setting in when I consulted the IguanaWorks website
and the advice was that if the iguanair module was loaded with the system
automatically, then just use the default /etc/lirc/hardware.conf, but
MythBuntu had already modified it, so I wasn't sure if the file
/etc/lirc/hardware.conf.{something -- old? backup? original?} constituted
the "default".  It looks like George answered that and I'll test it out in
a test environment before I try to do the switchover again.

Also, I was clueless (until Hika addressed it) what the new device was that
replaced (in my case with the iguanaIR) /dev/iguanaIR/0.

While no one addressed my concern regarding key code <---> action pair
definitions in the new scheme, I have since had time to think about it and
believe this resource will help: Alec Leamas' HOWTO at
https://github.com/leamas/lirc-docs.  From a quick look at it, I may just
want to try and see if "it just works" or if I need to do any tweaking.
