Title:
  recent kernel upgrade broke lirc with mceusb

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Not sure if this should be submitted to the kernel or lirc.  What changed was the kernel, what I modified to fix the issue was lirc. I've been using the lirc for years with success.  A recent update broke it.  The error message when starting liric (/etc/init.d/lric start) is:
  * Unable to load LIRC kernel modules. Verify your
  * selected kernel modules in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

  I read online that there has been a change of modules included with
  the kernel that can trigger this problem.  With the change mentioned,
  my remote is working as it used to.

  WORKAROUND: Modified /etc/lirc/hardware.conf :
  #REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_mceusb"

  Added the line:
  REMOTE_MODULES="mceusb"
