[mythtv-users] Was: HIPER HMC-2K53A as MythTv Frontend? / SilverStone ML02

Steve:

Have you gotten the imon-pad patch to work with the current version of
Lirc?  The wiki reports:

Warning: PAD patches not working. Several patches exist. Can not get
the PAD to work with latest lirc 0.8.1 and kernel 2.6.18. Please fill
the gaps...-Moosylog Feb 2007

I've had no luck myself, so if you have, can you update the wiki on
how you did it?

Thanks,

George
