[mythtv-users] Need help getting Lirc to work with pvr-150

Hi,

I used Jarod's doc to set up:

- Myth 0.17 from rpm
- lirc from rpm with New Hauppauge grey/black lircd.conf from Jarod's howto
- FC3 upgraded kernel to 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 with apt
- pvr-150 using ivtv  0.3.2m compiled from source

using this setup, I load the lirc_i2c module, start lircd, start irw
and don't see any output from button pushes.

I do see that irw opens and closes the conection to lircd.  and if I
load myth, I see that a connection was opened as well.

So, it would seem that the lirc part is at least connecting.  I'm not
sure lircd is seeing the hardware though.  The device in /dev is a
socket.  Shouldn't it be a char 61 device?

srw-rw-rw-  1 root root 0 Mar 24 14:57 /dev/lircd

One more thing, when I load the lirc_i2c module, I get:

lirc_dev: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61

Does "kernel tainted" mean anything?

Here's the relevant logs:
