Ah, bingo! I changed the device to /dev/input/by-id/usb-15c2_0038-event-if00
and now I can see with irw the buttons I press! Great!!!
Thanks a lot!!!

Can you advice me about VFD as well? I'd like to get it to work
with lcdproc. I have the following configuration for imon module:

options imon display_type=1

I can see the device /dev/lcd0 is created.
But I don't see anything on the VFD screen even when I run:

echo Hello > /dev/lcd0

Do you have an idea on how to move forward with this one?
