All is working well except for PVR350 remote (I have a 150 in the system as well no remote input). I have seen where ivtv has move to the kernel and lirc_zilog is now going to be the standard.

Sorry about that bad language.

I was just reading a post you made back on 3-31-2010 about that and have done so.
I added LIRC_MODULE="ir-kbd-i2c" to /etc/sysconfig/lirc but the ir-kbd-i2c doesn't get loaded so i end up with
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[1569]: unable to open '/dev/input/event7'
Is this the right place to load the module?
