[mythtv-users] remote control keys not working after Fedora upgrade

I can tell you what bit me.  The LIRC device changed from /dev/lircd to
/var/run/lirc/lircd  (Change it under Setup->General.  It is one of the last
pages under there.)  Changing that and restarting mythfrontend corrected the
remote for me.
