ok, I got it working... the driver was lirc_mceusb2 for those of you interested, and for some reason all I had to do was unplug and plug back in and check my dmesg | grep lirc. I recieved a message that the usb device I just plugged in was claimed as mce remote receiver. Anyways... now I need to know where to place the lircrc file for the rpm install from ATrpms... any help here?

<div style="direction: ltr;">whether I have the right remote configuration file specified or not...
irw should still spit out some sort of number based on what key I
press... it is not. I do however, have a conf file specified and
it is the correct one for my remote.</div></blockquote></span></div><div style="direction: ltr;"><div><br>Sorry, but that's not the case. irw only tells you what lirc knows about <br><br>Your lircd.conf should be in /etc, and hopefully contains the following text, along with a lot of other stuff:
