Title:
  lirc init script doesn't disable other methods on natty

Status in “lirc” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lirc

  In natty the sysfs interface has change a bit so there's no longer a devices/virtual/rc.
  The following patch seems to solve it!

  diff --git a/etc/init.d/lirc b/etc/init.d/lirc
