Completely empty? Or just nothing added to any of the config options
in there? Empty in either case means lircd using /dev/lirc0 and the
"default" driver (i.e., attach to a kernel device), which given that
you've got lirc_serial loading first, means lircd is trying to talk to
your transmitter. However, if I'm remembering clearly (btw, while
trimming replies is appreciated, its also possible to trim too much
from a reply...), you were getting a message about the device not
supporting transmit. Not quite sure what to suggest right now. I'd
probably reverse the load order though, so lirc_i2c loads first, then
the remote should at least work. I'm really not all that familiar with
the auto-config stuff in mythdora myself, not sure how the blaster
setup is supposed to have come out.

Should only have one or the other, not both. Not sure which one takes
precedence.
