gnome3 upgrade killed lirc on my media box

Hi All,

I have just upgraded my xbmc media box to gnome3 after sorting out my mirror issues, and I am left with lirc not working.

I have a streamzap usb remote and the 1st thing I noticed is that the kernel module that used to load fine, now fails. The kernel module was called
"lirc_streamzap", however I notice a kernel module called "streamzap" so loaded that instead.

The next thing I noticed was that I did not have and /dec/lirc0 etc style devices and the lirc daemon ( lircd ) is running ...
dmesg gives the following weird errors:

Anyone have any idea what is going on here, looks like a bug in the kernel driver ..
