Its not in the lirc tree at all (not in the CVS at all) so its unsurprising that its not in the ATrpms package. > I had to find the corrent source code > for the ONE driver and compile a version of lirc against my current > kernel. The kernel module for the newer version is at http://blatter.com/mceusb/ I see there is a new version there but that appears to be a mod to support additional hardware. At present the new and old drivers are significantly different, so the only way they could both be supported in Lirc would be to have 2 differently named modules within the tree. > It semi-worked.

On my hardware, with kernels up to 2.6.11-1.14 (FC3 distribution) I was getting very intermittent hardware detection/module loading (ie one in 20 times). I haven't yet tried it against the newer kernel version. The way I handle this is to build just that kernel module and install it manually.
