And, btw, manually specifying lirc_dev to be loaded is sheer
stupidity. Its a module dependency of all lirc kernel drivers,
lirc_dev will be automatically loaded when the actual driver module is
requested, unless something is horribly broken on your system (in
which case, manually loading lirc_dev first shouldn't make a lick of
difference, things would still be busticated).
