Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1600

[Kyle B. <kyl...@gm...>]

I'm having trouble getting my remote working for my WinTV HVR-1600.
The problems seems to be the absence of /dev/lirc0 and I'm not quite
sure what or if I'm doing anything wrong.  I'm using 2.6.27-gentoo-r8.
I also made and installed these modules:

Here's some information about my setup, if I missed something let me know:

cobalt linux # equery list lirc

cobalt linux # cat /etc/conf.d/lircd
LIRCD_OPTS="-d /dev/lirc0"

cobalt linux # grep LIRC /etc/make.conf
LIRC_DEVICES="hauppauge"

cobalt linux # uname -a

Here's my config files, all I've done is copy them over to
/etc/lircd.conf & /etc/lirmd.conf respectively.

cobalt linux # md5sum /usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge
43e093ae901a5333a79a8102d367e1d8
/usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge

cobalt linux # md5sum /usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircmd.conf.hauppauge
846773709d239e8fd63694aa03ad2c5a
/usr/share/lirc/remotes/hauppauge/lircmd.conf.hauppauge

Thanks for you time in advance!
