Another useful source I found was the Gentoo LIRC howto.  They have
multiple lircd.conf files based on the various versions of the ATI
Remote Wonder model numbers.  I will say that ultimately I ended up
creating my own since some of their mappings were not working for me
(keys bound to wrong action).  If you'd like, I can provide mine that
works for me, using remote model 5000023600 - if I remember correctly,
I have 2 and can't remember which I'm using.

Also make sure that after creating /etc/lircd.conf you re-insert the
modules (or reboot) and then start up lircd then try irw.
