Title:
  lirc not working correctly on 2.6.38 kernel

Status in “lirc” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lirc

  lirc not working correctl y on 2.6.38 kernel. I reverted back to lirc
  not working correctly on 2.6.35 kernel and it starts working. I
  understand that mceusb is now part of kernel driver. So I have
  accordingly changed hardware.conf. I dont see anything on irw or ir-
  keytable -t when i press my remote(s). Tried multiple remotes to see
  the input. I can confirm that there is /dev/lirc0. When I do cat
  /dev/lirc0 and press remote I see garbage spew on the screen.

  My IR Receiver is
  Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0471:0815 Philips (or NXP) eHome Infrared Receiver

  # ir-keytable
