Comment 25 for bug 182530

Progress.

So I compiled from source on this box like I normally had in the past and
the lirc_serial device was not working as planned. Doing a little checkup I
found that it was still loading the old lirc_serial modules...very odd. I
thought they would be replaced. I moved the folder and ran a depmod and then
make install. Success.

So the patches we tested before I assume did not actually replace the
modules that were loading. I have removed all modules from the system and am
going to patch the 0.8.3pre1 packages and build them again. Hopefully later
tonight.
