The new lirc tries to run depmod after installing certain modules and this causes an access violation. ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY LOG FILE = "/tmp/sandbox-lirc-0.7.0_pre2-1826.log" open_wr: /lib/modules/2.4.22-ck2/modules.dep a quick grep of my workdir and I got this... grep "depmod -a" * -r ChangeLog: Run "depmod -a" after installation. ChangeLog: Added module dependencies generation (depmod -a) after intallation. drivers/lirc_serial/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a drivers/lirc_parallel/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a drivers/lirc_sir/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a drivers/lirc_dev/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a drivers/lirc_it87/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a drivers/lirc_bt829/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a drivers/lirc_atiusb/Makefile: -/sbin/depmod -a removing the depmod -a from lirc_dev fixed it for me, as that's the only one of those I use (as I use LIRC_OPTS="--with-driver=hauppauge") The line would have to be commented/removed for all of them to fix this for everyone though.
