Binary package hint: lirc

Hi, I have IgorPlug-USB(AVR) receiver, it works on Windows fine with 4-5
transmitters I have tested.

I have installed generic Jaunty (Intrepid, some other custom kernels.. with no 
luck too).
I have Installed lirc package and chose from the list Igor Cesko USB receiver.

On boot I see that appropriate kernel module loaded without errors:
$ dmesg | grep lirc
[   21.824130] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 
[   21.868206] lirc_igorplugusb: USB remote driver for LIRC v0.1
[   21.868218] lirc_igorplugusb: Jan M. Hochstein 
<hochst...@algo.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de>
[   21.944392] lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 100
[   21.993818] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Ing. Igor Cesko, Copyright(c) 2003 
IgorPlug-USB (AVR) on usb3:3
[   21.997883] usbcore: registered new interface driver lirc_igorplugusb

So I run irw utility to test the system and press buttons on transmitter, irw 
gives no output instead of received characters.
$ irw

In dmesg output I see buffer overrun error on each keypress:
$ dmesg | grep lirc
[   21.824130] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 
[   21.868206] lirc_igorplugusb: USB remote driver for LIRC v0.1

<hochst...@algo.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de>

[   21.993818] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Ing. Igor Cesko, Copyright(c) 2003 
IgorPlug-USB (AVR) on usb3:3
[   21.997883] usbcore: registered new interface driver lirc_igorplugusb
[  165.356078] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Device buffer overrun.
[  165.700094] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Device buffer overrun.

The same story with all transmitters I tested. All of them work in
Windows. I think the problem is in lirc_igorplugusb kernel module,
almost the same code in all distributions.

I have now skills in IR technology so.. reported this bug to you. Any
help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Denis
