Some news...
nothing working:

I launched from root from xterm a single line :

Code:

   killall -e lircd ; for each in $(cat /root/drivers ) ; do killall -e $each ;  echo "------$each-----------"  ; sleep 1s ; echo $each ; printf " " ;   xterm -e  "lircd -H $each  -d /dev/input/event3     " ;   printf "** Not working, enter for next driver? ***"  ;    read kjklfds   ; killall -e lircd ;  sleep .5s   ; done

with /root/drivers:

Code:

	 alsa_usb
        atilibusb
        audio_alsa
        bte
        bw6130

My guess at this stage is that your remote is operating as an extra USB keyboard. It's possible there are settings in the BIOS for using a USB keyboard that you could play with, maybe in conjunction with 'xev' to see if the X server is capturing any events from the remote. Another poster had the problem that his remote was interfering with the built-in keyboard on his notebook.

I never used a USB keyboard, so I'm not quite sure what to expect.

As a last resort you can recompile lirc with the debug option enabled, and even add extra debugging code to the dev/input driver. There is some documentation about the USB input system in directory Documentation/input of the kernel source code (especially input.txt), but I never got my head around this stuff.
