How to add support for lirc_i2c for PVR250 cards

[archived]

I have been trying to figure out exactly how to stop the lirc_mceusb driver from being loaded, but I have not been able to determine how to stop this driver from loading and getting the lirc_i2c to load.  

I have a hybrid system set up with PVR250 installed and ivtv drivers loaded properly, confirmed by dmesg.  

I am very confused on how the LIRC modules are loaded.  I have two different remotes along with configuration files that I have used in the past to control MythTV in the past.  

Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob (my nickname is same),

I had similar problems since I use ATI Remote Wonder. Pluto guys said to me that loading of mce module is hardcoded, but in my case it doesn't pose any problem...

Code:

dcerouter_260:/home/logs/pluto$ lsmod | grep lirc
lirc_mceusb            10752  0
lirc_atiusb            18016  1
lirc_dev               15204  2 lirc_mceusb,lirc_atiusb
usbcore               122520  10 lirc_mceusb,usblp,lirc_atiusb,pwc,ehci_hcd,hci_usb,uhci_hcd,snd_usb_audio,snd_usb_lib

There are other lirc modules loaded beside lirc_mceusb and lirc works....

HTH,

Rob.
