[mythtv-users] No LIRC on frontend restart

[Matt Hannan]

I am running lirc-0.7-pre3 on kernel 2.4.20-30_37.rh9.at.

Do I need to worry about this patch or editing lirc_dev.c?

I'm guessing the flameeyes patch reverted that, since 0.7pre4 included
that fix. That should only apply to folks with kernel >= 2.6 though.
