Hey Alec - some exciting news! When I changed lircd.conf to include
/usr/share/lirc/remotes/devinput/lircd.conf.devinput I now get some
response to button presses in irw. Whoo hoo! (Many many apologies for
wasting people's time if I was supposed to do this way back in the setup).

Here's the type of responses I'm getting in irw:

0000000080010202 00 KEY_NUMERIC_2 devinput
0000000080010203 00 KEY_NUMERIC_3 devinput
0000000080010201 00 KEY_NUMERIC_1 devinput
0000000080010201 00 KEY_NUMERIC_1 devinput
000000008001019c 00 KEY_PREVIOUS devinput
00000000800100d0 00 KEY_FASTFORWARD devinput
00000000800100d0 00 KEY_FASTFORWARD devinput
00000000800100a8 00 KEY_REWIND devinput
00000000800100a8 00 KEY_REWIND devinput
00000000800100cf 00 KEY_PLAY devinput
00000000800100cf 00 KEY_PLAY devinput
0000000080010077 00 KEY_PAUSE devinput
0000000080010077 00 KEY_PAUSE devinput

So I'm hoping that means we now have step 2 (irw ) working and we're ready
to go onto step 3 (ircat mythtv). So what do I need to do now?
