Ray,

I commented out that alias line you suggested but I still get the same
result. Here is a bit of my lsmod. lirc_i2c says unused. You also have a
i2c_proc on the i2c-core line and I do not. 

i2c-algo-bit            8872   1  [ivtv]
lirc_i2c                4480   0  (autoclean) (unused)
i2c-core               19172   0  (autoclean) [ivtv saa7127 saa7115
msp3400 tuner i2c-algo-bit lirc_i2c]
lirc_dev                9312   1  (autoclean) [lirc_i2c]

What do you think?

Thanks,
James
