I went through the swap from lirc to evdev last year. I build the disc 
image for my frontend with kiwi-ng and have the recipe in a git 
repository here: https://github.com/Glidos/kiwi-mythfrontend

Looking back, I can see that I ...

* Removed lirc from the system including all the old config and tables

* Added a package called v4l-utils (may be called something else in 
distros other than openSuSE)

* Created a file called rc6_mce in /etc/rc_keymaps, containing

I think I may have come up with those codes by running a program that 
displayed them while pressing keys on the remote, but I can't off hand 
remember the name of the program.
