Re: Problems with kernel 2.6.38rc7- and lirc

[Dirk V. <dir...@ya...>]

After modprobe ir-kbd-i2c i see the devices:

input: i2c IR (Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350 as /devices/virtual/rc/rc1/input10
rc1: i2c IR (Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350 as /devices/virtual/rc/rc1
ir-kbd-i2c: i2c IR (Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350 detected at i2c-9/9-0018/ir0
[ivtv i2c driver #0]

Thanks for help,

Dirk
