Bug Description

Binary package hint: lirc

Hi.

Using dpkg-reconfigure lirc, I choose to usb the userspace driver (atilibusb) for my Ati remote wonder (first generation). However, lirc fails with

>Sep 16 18:33:56 prometheus lircd-0.8.2[3887]: couldn't claim USB interface: Device or resource busy
>Sep 16 18:33:56 prometheus lircd-0.8.2[3887]: caught signal

in daemon.log because lirc_atiusb.ko is loaded. This problem persists across reboots, ie after rebooting, I still have to unload lirc_atiusb.ko and restart lircd.

lirc_atiusb.ko should be blacklisted if the userspace driver is selected.
