The last answer is correct IF you're using LIRC with your ATI remote and 
not the IMO much easier to use kernel driver which allows your remote to 
act as a KB and mouse.  The problem he's referring to comes in kernels > 
2.6.12 when using the default ATI driver.  I've looked high and low and 
can't find any way to configure the repeat time when loading the 
module.  If somoene knows this please let me know
