Thanks for the hint. As far as I can see, this change is new in kernel
2.6.32-rc1. In 2.6.31, which is where Pawel reported the issue, we
still have IR_KEYTAB_TYPE.

Pawel, are you by any chance mixing kernel drivers of different
sources? Best would be to provide the output of rpm -qf and modinfo for
all related kernel modules:

rpm -qf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/media/video/ir-kbd-i2c.ko
rpm -qf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/media/common/ir-common.ko
rpm -qf /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134.ko

modinfo ir-kbd-i2c
modinfo ir-common
modinfo saa7134

Thanks,
