[mythtv-users] Need help to install LIRC properly

Hi!

I am experiencing some pb with setting up lirc. I think it has to do 
with module configuration...

I use a Fedora Core 2 (2.6.8.1) box with a Hauppage PVR 250 (a grey 
remote).
(No other IR hardware inside)

I follow the FC2 Fedora Myth(TV)logy howto as accurately as I can .
(http://www.wilsonet.com/mythtv/fc2myth.php#lirc)

The difficulties I am facing are the following :

As root I do as follows :

# /sbin/depmod -a
# /sbin/modprobe lircd_i2c
# /sbin/chkconfig lircd on
# /sbin/service lircd start

Then I can use irw or mythfrontend with the remote without any problems.
BUT after a reboot  irw or mythfrontend keep freezing the box.

When I type lsmod, no ivtv or i2c_* modules are listed.

Can anyone give me some advice ?
Thanks,

Fred.
