Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: lirc

I've tried to find a solution for this problem for some time. Apparently
Natty loads some default modules for handling IR-input and sends them as
keyboard input instead of the lirc event I want. This makes my remote
useless in XBMC (media center program) since I cannot use it for
anything else than navigation (the actual lirc installation isn't on
this computer, it's on my htpc without a browser or desktop). A proposed
solution is in this bug report
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/766647) but it is
regarding a MCE remote and it doesn't work for my Antec Veris rm200.
Until the ubuntu-devs make a permanent fix please tell me how to unload
all the conflicting modules?
