Scott Selberg, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel 
available (not the daily folder) following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream 
kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this 
bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For 
example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next 
to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

- Not sure if this should be submitted to the kernel or lirc.  What
- changed was the kernel, what I modified to fix the issue was lirc.

- I've been using the lirc for years with success.  A recent update broke it.  
The error message when starting liric (/etc/init.d/lric start) is:

- I made the following modification to my /etc/lirc/hardware.conf file:
- 
- Commented out the line:
- #REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev lirc_mceusb"
- 
- Added the line
- REMOTE_MODULES="mceusb"
  
  I read online that there has been a change of modules included with the
  kernel that can trigger this problem.  With the change mentioned, my
- remote is working as it used to.  Hopefully this helps somebody else.
