[pvrusb2] Trouble with lirc

[Rick Immel]

How do you setup lirc for pvrusb2?  I am running a 2.6.16 kernel and the 
latest version of lirc (0.8.0) will not compile.  I was able to obtain a 
CVS snapshot of lirc (0.8.1) that does compile, but will not work.  Is 
there another version I should be using?  I assume that you setup lirc 
for a Hauppauge PVR-x50 card just like you setup up MythTV.  Is that 
correct?   Or should you setup lirc  as a USB or serial device?   In 
other words, what should you select in the setup.sh menus to configure 
lirc?  BTW both the pvrusb2 driver and MythTV are  working OK.
