Hi
I believe the pvr-150 should also be supported in the 7.1pre2.
If when you load lirc_i2c you load it using the debug parameter e.g.
modprobe lirc_i2c debug
You then load lircd and irw hopefully when you press different keys you will
be able to see in dmesg a specific number for each key you press.
If this works ok I can only assume that when you ran irrecord you didn't
follow the onscreen instructions and hold down a button at the start type a
key name hold that button down and press enter etc.
If you are still not getting anything, you may need to check what i2c address
your infra-red port is on by loading the lm-sensors package and running
i2cdetect with the correct bus address, e.g. run i2cdetect on its own and it
will list the busses, then run e.g. i2cdetect 0 and all the i2c bus addresses
will be listed. If you look through your logs and check which i2c bus
addresses are used by the other devices, the only one left should be your
infra-red port. The next stage is to look at the lirc_i2c.c code.
