Nope.

I've been trying to get my GPIO lirc to work and I was always getting device busy when using mode2.
Stopping lirc and then running mode2 worked and I could see the key presses.
Is that because there is a conflict between lirc USB and lirc GPIO?

I just got my HoneyPi GPIO IR Receiver working earlier today.
These are the steps I took.
Edited the /etc/modules file
sudo nano /etc/modules
appended :
lirc_rpi
to the file.
To save file: ctrl+o
To close file: ctrl+x
I'm using a custom lircd.conf file for my remote(an 8-in-1 RadioShack remote), located at /home/xbian/lircd.conf, so I had to edit the /etc/lirc/lircd.conf file.
sudo nano /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
and appended
include "/home/xbian/lircd.conf"
to the file.
To save file: ctrl+o
To close file: ctrl+x
Restarted lirc
sudo restart lirc
And just to make sure, restarted XBMC
sudo restart xbmc
After that it was working, except for the double response, so I edited the /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf file:
sudo /etc/lirc/hardware/lirc_rpi.conf
and changed:
LIRCD_ARGS="-u"
to:
LIRCD_ARGS=""
After that, my remote was working just like it should.
mode2, irw, and irrecord all worked as expected.
Hope this helps
p.s. this is on XBian_1.0_Beta_2
p.p.s also noted, anytime I stop and restart lirc, seems I need to restart XBMC befor it will respond to the remote.

Any news?

I haven't had a chance to test it with Xbian yet, but I use the Firc USB dongle ($22.95) with a Harmony One on my Raspberry Pi Kodi installation, and it's pretty seamless... the Flirc more or less emulates a USB keyboard. It's not as customizable as I'd like, but does provide all the control I need over Kodi.

For years I've been using the IR receiver from a AVS Gear HA-IR01SV Infrared remote. I have the receiver plugged into my pi, and then use my harmony to control. It works great. I'm currently running Xbian with Kodi 17
