What do you see in dmesg after loading up lirc_mod_mce the first time?
Could be that its not binding to your hardware, might not have as complete
a list of supported devices. Does /dev/lirc0 exist?

That's expected. Those bits only show up on drivers written to the new
rc-core interfaces, which lirc_mod_mce is not.

None that I know of, but I'm not intimately familiar with that driver.

No.
