Well after reviewing all the comments from people, it looks like I will 
be running a network wire to the other room and buying an ATI Remote 
Wonder.  It is well supported under LIRC.  Eventually I will look at a 
wireless connection.  A person in the office here has a spare 802.11b 
gateway and USB dongle.  I just have to make sure it works with Linux.

Thanks for advice folks.
