you do not need this symlink, because your device is ok:
lirc acts in 3 stages:
1) the kernel driver creates /dev/lirc/0 (usualy /dev/lirc or /dev/lirc0)
2) the lircd daemon which reads from /dev/lirc/0 and compares the input
with the keys defined in lircd.conf
->irrecord acts as well in this stage (therfore has it allmost the same
arguments as lircd)
lircd create a socket /dev/lircd and infroms clients in the next stage
about keys.
3) irw, lircrcd and also freevo are reading the lircrc file and connect to
the /dev/lircd socket and do something when a button is pressed...

if you understand this scematic, you understand lirc.

your next will be to use irrecord. for now i point to the help here
http://lirc.org/html/install.html#testing
http://lirc.org/html/irrecord.html
http://winlirc.sourceforge.net/technicaldetails.html

tell me if you have problems. the docu is not the best and maybe you have
to climb even higher... :-)
