The USB dongle shows up as a Human Interface Device (HID) - in this 
case, a keyboard. There's no need to use lirc (and I don't think lirc 
supports USB HIDs.) Just map the remote keys to the appropriate 
functions in Myth. Having said that, I never could get the key mappings 
set up satisfactorily, so I made a serial IR receiver, and used lirc 
with that.

Cheers,

Jon
