No, I'm using this one: SK-7551

That may be the difference...$29 is not much to spend to see if it 
would resolve my problem.  What do you use instead of enter?  Right 
arrow?

I was contemplating going the LIRC route if I couldn't get this to
work.
I do love the fact that I have a nice IR receiver, and a keyboard and 
remote that should work over the same interface.  I wonder if the 
only difference is the type of keyboard...
