From my experience:

I'm loading the modules in this order:

modprobe usbcore
modprobe uhci-hcd
modprobe ehci-hcd
modprobe lirc-dev
modprobe lirc-serial   # I'm also using a serial remote
modprobe lirc-imon
lircd
sleep 1               #  <- !!!
LCDd


Use the latest versions of lirc an lcdproc from cvs



I am using lirc 0.7.2 stable and just now I am not trying to start also the display

The lirc-dev and lirc-imon looks like loading corectly  but the vdr answer is now :
