I'm glad that fixed it, now lets hopefully try to figure out why that was causing a bug in the first place so that we can try to avoid it for future users.
What version of lirc-modules-source did you have installed? This should be in the logs in /var/log/dpkg.log or /var/log/apt/. Do you remember at what point you installed it? Was it before this newer kernel got installed? ** Package changed: linux (Ubuntu) => lirc (Ubuntu) -- /dev/lirc0 disappeared after upgrade from 2.6.35-20 to -22 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655512 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
