Definitely the kernel (media subsystem), possibly wrong kernel version (sorry...)

I have installed generic Jaunty (Intrepid, some other custom kernels.. with no luck too). I have Installed lirc package and chose from the list Igor Cesko USB receiver. On boot I see that appropriate kernel module loaded without errors: $ dmesg | grep lirc [ 21.824130] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 [ 21.868206] lirc_igorplugusb: USB remote driver for LIRC v0.1 [ 21.868218] lirc_igorplugusb: Jan M. Hochstein <hochst...@algo.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de> [ 21.944392] lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 100 [ 21.993818] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Ing. Igor Cesko, Copyright(c) 2003 IgorPlug-USB (AVR) on usb3:3 [ 21.997883] usbcore: registered new interface driver lirc_igorplugusb So I run irw utility to test the system and press buttons on transmitter, irw gives no output instead of received characters. $ irw In dmesg output I see buffer overrun error on each keypress: $ dmesg | grep lirc [ 21.824130] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 [ 21.868206] lirc_igorplugusb: USB remote driver for LIRC v0.1 [ 21.868218] lirc_igorplugusb: Jan M.

[ 165.700094] lirc_igorplugusb[3]: Device buffer overrun. The same story with all transmitters I tested. All of them work in Windows. I think the problem is in lirc_igorplugusb kernel module, almost the same code in all distributions. I have now skills in IR technology so.. reported this bug to you. Any help will be appreciated.
