Since you have two PVR-150 cards, you have two choices for which card to
use for the lirc control. Unless you have some other device selected
like a serial port. Do you know which card lirc is trying to use?

You can run a quick check by booting but not running MythTV. Then do a :

$ cat -A /dev/lirc

You might have multiple /dev/lirc? devices because you have multiple
cards. This is NOT the same as /dev/lircd because /dev/lircd is what you
get after everything gets processed.

Then try pressing the remote buttons to see if you get any output. That
way you'll make sure you are using the right /dev/lirc? device to start
with.

Once you identify the correct /dev/lirc? device you might need to make a
small change to the lircd init.d script to make sure it uses the correct
device.
