 Yup, that's the same one!
 
 Have you tried irrecord after making the driver mods and see if it
 picks up activity on /dev/input/event2 (in my case) ?
 

I have just got it working!!

I tried 2 video4linux snapshots but they wouldn't compile. I think that's what 
made me think I had tried it already with an older snapshot which worked - it 
was getting all a bit confusing!

Anyway, I copied the cx88-input.c over the one in the kernel source tree and 
recompiled. Then I copied the lircd.conf, started lircd (as it says).

The problem was with this line:

 copy the lircd file to ~/.mythtv/lircd

I had been running mythfrontend on login - when I ran from a bash shell I got 
could not open /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc in the output. The doc says the 
wrong filename. Renamed the file to lircrc and bingo!

Thanks for your quick responses. I got there and I'm happy :-D

Ah, yes - I remember that typo now!

Well done on getting it working.
