[ATrpms-users] lircd, ivtv and missing device node

[Neil Bird]

   I've just upgraded my Myth box to FC5 from FC3, and I'm still having to do 
a frig with lirc that I'd have though the RPM should deal with (but maybe not).

   I have to add the following to my lircd init script (in start()):

         /sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c
         [ -e /dev/lirc ] || mknod /dev/lirc c 61 0
         sleep 1
         /usr/local/bin/ivtv-pal 2>&1 >/dev/null

   This is for my PVR-350 card (ivtv 0.6 driver).


   If this isn't an automatic thing, is there some more clever way [that won't 
get lost on upgrade] I should be doing it, maybe via udev and a module setting?
