LIRC not working in Kernel 2.6.33.7-pclos6.a64

[Jaycoke]

I have been trying to get LIRC working in the latest kernel, with no success. I have it working in 2.6.32.11-pclos2.bfs.  Seems that everything else works fine. Is there a trick to use the driver that is in the kernel? As far as I know after kernel-2.6.31.12-pclos1-1-1pclos2010.i586.rpm ( http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,68130.msg555550.html#msg555550 ) the driver was built in to the kernel.

Excerpt from dmesg seems like it is loading ok.
