Comment 12 for bug 550369

Thanks guys - that worked great. I am going to post this on a new thread on mythbuntu forums. I just got lucky finding this. I didn't thing to look for or notice the CPU pegging. I just noticed my remote didn't work and couldn't find that anyone else had this problem. Anyway this is what I did:
- the lirc_dev would not unload and wouldn't let the new package install correctly so I did this:
-mythbuntu control center and uncheck the remote selection checkbox. (left lirc itself checked)
-sudo mv /dev/init.d/lirc /dev/init.d/lirc-off
-rebooted machine (so that lirc and lirc_dev doesn't load)
-Used synaptic to install all 5 of the new packages with the new lirc +ppa2 at the end (look in synaptic under /main /universe)
-sudo mv /dev/init.d/lirc-off /dev/init.d/lirc
-go into mythbuntu control center, enable the remote and select the hauppauge TV card one.
-Reboot and check

Guessing they are spending a lot of resources on fixing it cuz there aren't too many of us "SD" TV watchers out there!.
