And lirc won't load.  I get these errors when inserting the module:

well, and what does dmesg say? Do you have i2c support in the kernel?
What kind of IR receiver are you using? Do you need certain kernel
drivers for the TV card?

Thank you for your reply.  Here is the relevant part of dmesg:

lirc_dev: Unknown symbol class_simple_device_add
lirc_dev: Unknown symbol class_simple_destroy
lirc_dev: Unknown symbol class_simple_device_remove
lirc_dev: Unknown symbol class_simple_create
lirc_i2c: Unknown symbol lirc_unregister_plugin
lirc_i2c: Unknown symbol lirc_register_plugin

I think I have i2c support in the kernel via module. This is my lsmod output:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ lsmod | grep i2c
i2c_nforce2             6560  0
i2c_algo_bit            9448  1 ivtv
i2c_core 20976 7 i2c_nforce2,tda9887,msp3400,saa7115,tuner,tveeprom,i2c_algo_bit

I'm using the receiver that comes with the Hauppauge PVR-250 card. I have this line in /etc/make.conf:

# From http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Setup_MythTV
LIRC_OPTS="--with-driver=hauppauge"

From something I read last spring when I first setup the box, I have /etc/modules.d/lirc with these lines:

alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c

And I have rebuilt lirc against the new kernel.  Any ideas?

Thanks for your help!

Drew
