I'm pretty sure it only receives from the Hauppauge remote that comes
with it.  If your universal remote supports learning, just train it
from the Hauppauge remote.  Transmitting should work for anything you
can find the codes for.

Yes, you need to patch, and probably will until at least 2.6.33.  See

for more details.
