Ahhhh.  If you only `modprobe cx18` and `modprobe ir_kbd_i2c` then your
remote will act like an infrared keyboard.  irw will not work as it
needs the lircd daemon running before it will work as an ir remote for
other programs.  So I suspect that you have the correct modules loaded
but...  you do not have lircd running).  Try `ps -ef | grep lirc` to see
if it is running.  If not (and probably even if it is running), you need
to follow the instructions in message 10 above to compile and install
lircd for the use of /dev/input/event# input.  There are detailed
instructions there for the required /etc/lirc/hardware.conf,
/etc/lirc/lircd.conf  and /home/<userid>/.lircrc files.

Just for fun I removed my compiled version of lircd and installed the
current lirc package (apt-get remove lirc and then apt-get install
lirc).  This installs the 0.8.6 lirc... BUT... it is not the one that is
needed for use of the remote with the Haupauge 1600 card as described in
message 10 above.

When you have the proper lircd compile, installed and launched by
rebooting (or executing `/etc/init.d/lirc start`) then you will get the
keycodes when you run irw.  And if you run irexec as a daemon you can
direct translated keycodes to specific programs to get the effects that
you want.
