Hi again, i found the cause of the problem. Some string length of the 2.6.22 kernel, which lirc_i2c writes the card name to, was shortend in this kernel version. The string of the Hauppauge pvr 150 in lirc_i2c is too long and causes system freeze when loading the module.
I got the opensuse lirc-kernel-module src rpm, unpacked it, added the patch supplied in the lirc mailing list, rebuilt it et voila...success when loading the lirc_i2c module. i think its also fixed in the lirc cvs vb vb schrieb: > Hi, > > thanks for the link.
