Thought you'd just slip that cat in the back of the photo for fun there, huh?

I also don't recognize the remote but I'm no expert.

If the volume keys are working then it would seem that you have the
correct module loaded.

There don't seem to be too many Asus remotes listed in the lirc
project - you could just try all 5 of them.

http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/asus/

Also if you read the conf files you will see the names of the keys and
possibly be able to determine which is the correct one.
