Not I...

The upgrade of lirc from 0.8.6 to 0.9.0 is pretty big; it was in this 
time drivers were moved from lirc to the kernel. So, the kernel version 
you are using is part of the scenario.

You probably need to start hunting this down using mode2(1) as described 
in http://lirc.org/html/configuration-guide.html.

Note that 0.9.0 is a really old version of lirc, lagging four years and 
two major versions behind the last release. Much of the stuff in the 
link above is geared towards never versions, but the basic workflow 
should be the same.

Cheers!
