[gentoo-user] Can't Re-Emerge lirc After Kernel Upgrade

[Drew Tomlinson]

I upgraded from 2.6.13-r5 to 2.6.14-r5 using gentoo-sources.  I'm using 
this machine for MythTV and I noticed lirc was not working after the 
upgrade.  So I tried rebuilding it but lirc 0.7.2 (the same version I 
was using before) fails to build.  I have no idea what's wrong and 
haven't found anything via Google.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Drew

You will have to use the lirc_i2c kernel module.

Now enter 'make' and 'make install' to compile and install the package.
