Gutsy also has 0.21 in back ports (which is what I'm running)
It was pretty seamless upgrade apart from the cards swapping
/dev/video* points after every restart, forcing me to learn udev
basics ;)
gnome-lirc-properties (the elisa guys wrote it) is in hardy as well
which I havn't tried yet, but should make lirc remotes a lot easier to
setup
