loading bttv through lirc

[Joel D. Z. <xw...@au...>]

I'm trying to get lirc running with a FC1/Hauppauge PVR350 mythtv setup and
I'm stumped with the following problem. I've seen several posts that address
this issue but unfortunately none of them ever seem to be resolved. I see
the following when I "modprobe lirc_i2c":

***cut from /var/log/messages***

I've read that lirc requires the bttv module for auto-detection which must
be why it's trying to load (and I know my PVR350 uses the ivtv driver). I've
tried different versions of lirc and bttv, I've played around with
/dev/video, /dev/video0, and /dev/lirc (not really knowing what I'm
doing...)

If it helps, here is my modules.conf.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.
