[mythtv-users] I'm going mad obviously...lirc kernel Modules

[Douglas Wagner]

Yes, and the Gui version of smart when I search for LIRC shows me all those
happy lirc-kmdl modules for the cubbi kernels and JACK for any stock kernel
in existance.

I'd LOVE to roll back to 2.6.16-1.2133 or 2.6.16-1.2096 but the damned
upgrade REMOVED and then DELETED the kmdl package, meaning it DELETED my
kernel driver and didn't replace the damn thing.

Thus the upgrade actively destroyed my prior kernels from working also.  How
nice of it. :(

The yum cache is also cleared (I have no download files) so in effect
lirc-kmdl for ANY Linux kernel any of us have installed is now gone, and
unresolveable as well as unobtainable.
