Well it didn't work.  When I do a cat /var/log/messages | grep usb I get this:

Mar 13 15:21:18 mythfrontend kernel: usbcore: registered new driver usbfs
Mar 13 15:21:18 mythfrontend kernel: usbcore: registered new driver hub
Mar 13 15:21:21 mythfrontend kernel: usbcore: registered new driver hiddev
Mar 13 15:21:21 mythfrontend kernel: usbcore: registered new driver usbhid
Mar 13 15:21:21 mythfrontend kernel: drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c:
v2.0:USB HID core driver
Mar 13 15:21:21 mythfrontend kernel: usb 3-2: new full speed USB
device using ohci_hcd and address 2

At one point, I actually got the usb3-2 to attach to a device I made
called /dev/ttyUSB0 but nothing after that.  Here is my modprobe.conf:

alias eth0 sk98lin
alias eth1 forcedeth
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 &&
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ;
}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 ohci-hcd
# nvidia kernel module
alias char-major-195 nvidia-1_0-6629

# LIRC Setup
alias char-major-61 lirc_mceusb
#Per Jared's instructions

#alias char-major-188-0 usbserial
#options usbserial vendor=0x0471 product=0x0815
#alias ttyUSB0 lirc_mceusb
#install lirc_mceusb /sbin/modprobe lirc
#  /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install lirc_mceusb

There has got to be a way to get this working.  Any ideas?  Can I
provide anymore information?
