Daniel,
At this moment, things are being re-evaluated. Could you remove
ubuntu-main-sponsors from this bug? I'll have a newer lirc patch after this
is determined upstream.

I think the only needed lines on most configurations are:

alias char-major-81-0 bttv

This is a quite valuable find here for a solution. I'm going to query
lirc-list to see if they would be willing to deprecate the usage of the
module in modern kernels. I think for now that lirc_gpio driver will
need to be removed from the build. Adapting this to work in a plug and

It seems we don't need lirc_gpio anymore.
I've followed the steps found at
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7660?pagenum=11 and
http://www.sthoughts.com/?p=332 to make it working. However, we should
find a plug-and-go solution to this.
First, unload lirc_dev, lirc_gpio, bttv. Then create this file:

Before (with 2.6.22-8 and my modifications in the kernel source) it was:

lirc_dev 16116 1 lirc_gpio

I installed the package.
Now lirc_gpio can be loaded, and lircd launched... but when I run irw, lircd
dies.
Something strange I noticed is that lirc_gpio doesn't depend on bttv as it used
to do:
# lsmod | grep lirc
lirc_gpio 37088 0
lirc_dev 15860 0

Mario, when you've got the workaround, post here the module lirc_gpio.ko
(compiled for 2.6.22-8-generic). I'll write it to /lib/modules/ and try
to load it. If it does, I'll test it with "irw" command.
If all of that works, then I'll make the final test by undoing the
changes to bttv I did and tes
Do you reffer on something that uses that module? Only lirc itself...
I currently have it working with my patched bttv and standard lirc_gpio

As this only affects lirc_gpio, i don't think using the deprecated functions
outside of lirc_gpio would be a good idea (putting this patch back out to
the kernel sources). I've already got work arounds in the source to include
missing bttv headers there. I'll see what happens. Hexion do you have
Is that possible? Lost functions are provided by an external module
(bttv), so if you want to implement those functions inside lirc_gpio, it

functions use, to be
As a temporary workaround, those functions (and headers) might suffice in

Well, this is a problem with lirc, but it's because linux developers
have dropped some functions from the BTTV module. There's a new API to
be used, but lirc developers haven't change the code to adapt it.
It's unlikely that they fix it before Gutsy is released (a
The headers aren't available because they aren't in the normal place

After reading posts in the mailing list of Lirc, and the bug you filed
in launchpad, I started thinking about how to solve this problem.
Well, I got it Now I'm running Lirc with 2.6.22 kernel using lirc_gpio

I simply added the functions droped in the source code, recompiled some
modules,
Sorry, I misunderstood what this patch was for...
After reading some posts in the Lirc mailing list (included yours), I
realized that there's no solution yet since some symbols have been
deleted in the vanilla kernel. I suppose this patch is then to make
lirc_gpio build, it's not intended to make
