Hi, Jarod

I have been using lirc in kernel for a long time.

It is already there for bttv cards.

http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Remote_controllers

I do not need to use lirc-kmdl anymore. In fact, if I use it, every key I
press produces a ghost key,
which is a nightmare for changing channels in certain programs, such as
mythtv and tvtime.

I had to create my own version of lirc-devices

/etc/sysconfig/lircd

         # Options to lircd
         LIRCD_OPTIONS="-H dev/input -d /dev/input/lirc"

/etc/udev/rules.d/lirc.rules

        KERNEL=="event*",
SYSFS{modalias}=="pci:v00008086d0000244Esv00000000sd00000000bc06sc04i01",
SYMLINK+="input/lirc"

with the two files above. Of course I had also to create another remote code
file for myself.

Everything works perfectly.
