[mythtv-users] MCE USB Lirc Problems

[Brian January]

I installed via apt-get 0.7.0-20_cvs20040208.rhfc1.at

I tried unplugging the transceiver and rmmod as noted, then plugged back in.
When I plugged back in the red light came on immediately but nothing was
loaded from looking at /var/log/messages. I modprobe it and still have the
same problem as before. If there are no other suggestions I will try to
install from source. Thanks.
