Mine is working great with lirc and my homebuilt receiver. I'm not using the 
default code set though so I see no point in posting my lircd.conf. (I have 
an actual Tivo working in the same room with another Tivo remote on a 
different code set.

One tip... Since the basic Tivo doesn't have any volume/mute capabilities, 
those 3 buttons do nothing without being programmed for TV or AV codes. 
Simply pick a code set that doesn't interefere with any of your other 
equipment and train lirc for just those 3 buttons and add that remote 
configuration to your lircd.conf along with your Tivo codes. It's not 
immediately obvious to everybody that lircd can easily accomodate multiple 
remote definitions in a single config file and thereby seamelessly handle 
codes from multiple remotes or a single remote using multiple code types.
