Can you help me understand why lirc_pvr150/lirc_zilog is not in the mainline lirc? I've gotten information on these from you before, and I've downloaded them and fooled around a little, but really digging in is still down a ways on my things-to-do list. Gentoo has has lirc at 0.8.4 for a long time, and recently moved to 0.8.5. The lirc_pvr150 patch I saw was against some 0.8.5 version, and I've never actually seen lirc_zilog, only heard about it. At least one reference was on lkml, so it sounds as if there has been at least one attempt to get lirc into the mainline kernel.
