You want to use the Hauppauge_350 remote section (the one at the
bottom) from the following file
http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/lircd.conf.hauppauge.

Copy and paste this section to /etc/lircd.conf and then irw should
work as normal.

The Hauppauge remotes use RC5 protocol so there is no need to record
the remote manually as all of the code will be in the complete RC5
conf file that is available from lirc.org
