Daniel, I found it. The Gentoo Wiki for MythTV shows how to build in support for a remote that I don't use. They don't mention that this one line should be change, nor do they suggest where to get the info to know how to change it. Once I noticed a message while lirc was building that said something about looking at the ebuild source to see what remotes it supported it became clear I needed to change this one line in the instructions to choose my remote. This built a different driver which, when loaded, created all the /dev devices and I now have a working remote. Cheers, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
