[mythtv-users] lirc do not work in my debian

[Fa Yoeu]

Check the following because it got me many times:

1.  lircd and lircmd are running.
2.  major and minor number of /dev/lirc are correct (on FC2 it
incorrectly was pointing to ttyS0).
3.  Check and make sure you are running the same version of the binary
that you think you are running and make sure it matches your module
version.  Make sure you remove old versions so that it doesn't confuse
you.
4.  Use irw and press a button to see if it works.
5.  I heard rumors (i haven't verified it) that pre8 is broken with
the PVR350, I am currently using pre7.
