I must be a little thick.

Or drunk.

Or maybe I just shouldn't post at 4:30am (while drunk).

I just realized.  You said you have 40 buttons on your
remote.  I only mapped 35 buttons on mine.  Maybe
what you meant was that there are not enough codes
in my files to map the other 6.  If so, here are some
more in the same RC5 code group (05 BTW, not 02
as previously stated by a woozie me):

236 = sys_05_command_0e
012 = sys_05_command_0f
046 = sys_05_command_1c
238 = sys_05_command_1e
014 = sys_05_command_1f
049 = sys_05_command_24
240 = sys_05_command_2e
018 = sys_05_command_3f

I don't have names for the keys since I didn't use them
in my lircd.conf, but you can look them up in the full RC5
list from the LIRC site.  I was very anal about the codes I
used.  I only used ones where the name of the button
in the docs from One-For-All corresponded closely with
tbe name of the button on my remote, so I passed up
some of the above.  They should be fine for any additional
keys you want to map.  Just double check that I didn't
accidentally provide codes for buttons already mapped on
your remote (by running irw).

(I would have given you the hex values for the lircd.conf
file but I don't have the list handy just now).

Time for bed.  Hangover to come later...
