I had the same problem with my Firefly remote. Basically it means that
the kernel model that you need is not loaded or is loaded incorrectly.
With me, I had to load the module lirc_atiusb before I was able to get
it to work.
Try running lirc-reconfigure.sh You may want to use google to figure
out what drivers will work with your remote.
Good luck
