Bug Description
Binary package hint: lirc-modules-source
In 10.10, I could not get the userspace driver (atilibusb) working, but lirc_atiusb from lirc-modules-source worked fine with a Snapstream Firefly (also called "ATI/NVidia/X10 RF Remote"). atilibusb no longer works in 11.04.
Editing atilibusb out of /etc/modprobe.
I know that atilibusb is deprecated and that the userspace driver is preferred, but it's best to also document the problem in lirc-modules-source for future reference. Also see bug 787735

"Editing atilibusb out of /etc/modprobe. d/lirc- blacklist allows the module to be loaded" is, um, well, nonsensical. Config files in /etc/modprobe.d/ are for configuring kernel module loading params. atilibusb isn't a kernel module. Its a userspace lircd driver plugin.
