It looks like there's still an ati_remote.ko somewhere on your system.

rmmod ati_remote
find / -name ati_remote.ko -print

then mv any of those to ~/

You'll still need the appropriate lircd.conf and .lircrc.

I found it hard to get the appropriate device file created (I'm using 
devfs) without rebooting.
