wrong major number problem

[Stephan R. <mai...@op...>]

Hi all, hi Jarod,

after changing my system and lirc to use the kernel patch for building 
drivers i have problems starting lirc. i am using lirc checked out 
yesterday from cvs and an kernel patch yesterday generated from jarod`s 
git tree.

/var/log/lircd:

Apr  4 14:48:58 openelec lircd: lircd(default) ready, using /dev/lircd
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: could not get hardware features
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: this device driver does not support the 
LIRC ioctl interface
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: major number of /dev/lirc0 is 250
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: LIRC major number is 61
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: check if /dev/lirc0 is a LIRC device
Apr  4 14:49:30 openelec lircd: WARNING: Failed to initialize hardware

the same problem like [1] ?

i am using for testing this lirc_mceusb (loaded by udev) and i start 
lirc with:

lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --output=/dev/lircd
