This is the card in question -

lsusb reports it as follows (under 2.6.32 and above kernels):
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 185b:3020 Compro
However due to an mplayer/lirc issue on my mythtv front/backend (also
debian/sid); I am running the debian 0.8.3-5 lirc driver. This means I have
to run a 2.6.31 kernel. It happens to report lsusb as follows:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 185b:3020 Compro K100 Infrared Receiver
I then do the following:
mythtv-debian:~# depmod
mythtv-debian:~# modprobe lirc_mceusb2
mythtv-debian:~# lsmod | grep mce
lirc_mceusb2 14404 0
lirc_dev 14728 1 lirc_mceusb2
usbcore 178196 4 lirc_mceusb2,ohci_hcd,ehci_hcd
mythtv-debian:~# ls /dev/lir* -la
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 May 29 17:21 /dev/lircd
mythtv-debian:~# /usr/sbin/lircd -d /dev/lirc0
mythtv-debian:~# ls /dev/lir* -la
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 May 29 17:34 /dev/lircd
The long and the short of it is that when I load MythTV or mplayer, the
remote is not picked up.
Any possible suggestions?

Support for that device was added to lirc cvs after lirc 0.8.4 was
released, i.e., the first release in which it was supported was 0.8.5,
and your 0.8.3 bits are too old.
