I installed my .lircrc file from
http://bit.blkbk.com/mythtv-xbox.0.4.5-beta.tar.gz
#cd /tmp
#wget http://bit.blkbk.com/mythtv-xbox.0.4.5-beta.tar.gz
#tar xpzvf mythtv-xbox.0.4.5-beta.tar.gz
#cd /tmp/live
#cp lircrc /home/live/.lircrc
#ln -s /home/live/.lircrc /home/live/.mythtv/lircrc
When I use the remote without the frontend running I can see the mouse moving
up, down, left, right, etc. It just seems like lirc isn't letting the
mythfrontend know about the signals from the remote.
This has to be something simple to fix that I'm missing.

It sounds like your remote is working but you're missing an lircrc file for mythtv, or it's configured improperly. I can't send you one right now because I'm at work, but that might point you in the right direction.
You should stop the remote from controlling the cursor, it'll make strange and annoying things happen in the background. To do this, comment out the following line in the file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4-xbox
InputDevice "LIRC-Mouse"

Drop me a line (off list) if you'd like an account.
