The patch can be grabbed from
http://flameeyes.web.ctonet.it/patch-2.5.72-lirc.diff.bz2
This patch (that apply over .72+ but probably also in previous
versions), adds the LIRC drivers (http://lirc.sf.net/) from the cvs to
the kernel.
As userland tools can be used lirc (from cvs) build against a 2.4
kernel.
I've tested it with my tv card for some weeks and it works perfectly.
I hope can be useful.
[Sorry if this is a double message, my isp's mailserver has some problems, I receive an error back from it, but i'm not sure if it's true or a false warning. In case, sorry]

I know this problem, lirc_i2c is using the i2c driver from lm_sensors
project, in the 2.4 version, so need a quite total rewrite.
