I was hoping that compiling the lircd would fix it. /dev/lirc0 is created by the kernel, lircd is not involved in this at all. > I downloaded lircd 0.9.4d and ran the normal ./configure, make make install > and got the error that the liblirc.so.0 could not be found. This is according to GNU standards - without options the install goes into /usr/local. This could he handled using ldconfig rather than creating symlinks, but it's just the tip of the iceberg - there are multiple configuration issues when installing from source. You might want to use the debian source package instead - it builds a debian package with proper paths. But bottom line is that it's probably best to restore lircd and focus on the kernel update - this is the culprit, and lircd cannot do anything about a missing /dev/lirc0.
