I would guess that it won't work. There is an effort to merge lirc. It's
currently stalled though. A git tree is available at

git://git.wilsonet.com/linux-2.6-lirc.git

Jared Wilson and I were working on it (mainly last september). Since the
IR on the HD PVR is also driven by the same zilog chip as on other
hauppauge devices I'll take of lirc_zilog. Help converting the i2c
drivers to the new i2c model is welcome. General cleanup of lirc to make
it ready for mainline is of course wellcome too.
