Post subject:  Need help getting PVR-150 IR blaster to work

Installed 6.02 recently. My hauppage pvr-150 grey remote works perfectly, but i'm having trouble getting the IR blaster to do anything. I see this in the lirc logs:
Code:
lircd: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
lircd: error processing command: SEND_ONCE blaster 2
lircd: hardware does not support sending
lircd: removed client

I copied my channel change script from my old r5.5 system. It is basically doing this:
Code:
irsend SEND_ONCE blaster 2

/var/log/messages has:
Code:

What does the 'Reopen i2c bus for IR-blaster support' message mean?

Any ideas of things I can try?

lsmod|grep lirc

I figured it out. I needed 'lirc_pvr150' added to the top of my /etc/modules.mythvantage file. I think if I would have gone through the LinHES setup menu for the remote after the initial install, it would have done this for me.
