[mythtv-users] My system was working great then I rebooted

[Shawn Asmussen]

If you installed a new kernel, I would imagine that ideally you would need
to recompile the ivtv and lirc kernel modules against the source code for
the new kernel. As for why it doesn't work when you boot into your old
kernel, I'm not sure. Did you also manually modprobe in the kernel module
for lirc before you started up the lircd?

Subject: [mythtv-users] My system was working great then I rebooted

My myth TV box has been working great with many reboots .  Today I ran
rhn updates I think kernel update (I wasn't thinking).  Everything broke
after the reboot... No dev/video no remote lircd.  I rebooted and set
grub to boot to my old kernel.  I need to manually modprobe my pvr 250
and now that is working so I can see TV but I run lircd and it is in ps
-ax | grep lirc.... But if I run irw or irxevent I get dropped to a
prompt and this in /var/log/lircd 
Jan  6 21:57:09 localhost.localdomain lircd 0.7.0pre2: lircd(hauppauge)
ready
Jan  6 21:57:12 localhost.localdomain lircd 0.7.0pre2: accepted new
client on /dev/lircd
Jan  6 21:57:12 localhost.localdomain lircd 0.7.0pre2: could not open
/dev/lirc
Jan  6 21:57:12 localhost.localdomain lircd 0.7.0pre2: default_init():
No such device
Jan  6 21:57:12 localhost.localdomain lircd 0.7.0pre2: caught signal
[root at localhost root]#
I tried chmod on /dev/lirc and /dev/lircd 666 and everything else I
could find.....Google had info but it all seemed to be fixed with the
chmod but not mine.
Help please
