The way I use the ati remote is to just change the ati_remote.c program 
to have the remote send the keys I want it to send instead of messing 
with xmodmap. I suppose it just comes down to preference (and I may try 
using xmodmap).  I have only 1 issue with the way I do it now, and that 
is I don't know how to map the question mark (. 

I'm not going to include a diff for you to use since you will very 
likely use different settings then I, but here is some of the changes I 
made to the file to suit my needs.


        {KIND_FILTERED, 0xc5, 0x00, EV_KEY, KEY_F7, 1},     /* A */
        {KIND_FILTERED, 0xc6, 0x01, EV_KEY, KEY_F8, 1},     /* B */
        {KIND_FILTERED, 0xde, 0x19, EV_KEY, KEY_I, 1},      /* C */
        {KIND_FILTERED, 0xe0, 0x1b, EV_KEY, KEY_M, 1},      /* D */
        {KIND_FILTERED, 0xe6, 0x21, EV_KEY, KEY_SPACE, 1},  /* E */
        {KIND_FILTERED, 0xe8, 0x23, EV_KEY, KEY_SLASH, 1},  /* F */


The rest of my changes are pretty much a mess right now (finally got my 
myth box back up and running), but I think that should give you an idea 
of what you can do. 
You will have to rmmod (if its running) and then insmod the ati_remote.o 
file for it to take effect every time you recompile it. 

Whether its easier or not is up to you.
