He seems to be talking abuot the config file, not the lircrc file which maps remote control button codes to specific actions within MythTV. Clearly what I was looking for (and it's handled now since I did one on my own) is the .mythtv/lircrc file so taht MythTV knows what to do with events coming in from the remote. That's pretty clearly, in my mind anyway, a MythTV issue and not an lirc issue.
Anyway, I see no set of files there for a MythTV user to use. I suspect that the outcome of his work is this directory http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/ which has the config file for the StreamZap http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/streamzap/PC_Remote but not the lircrc file which would tell MythTV what to do with each button push. I was thinking that MythTV should offer these files to make it easier for people with new remotes to make things work nicely.
