Found /sys/class/rc/rc1/ (/dev/input/event2) with:
        Driver ir-kbd-i2c, table rc-rc5-tv
        Supported protocols: RC-5
        Enabled protocols:
        Repeat delay = 500 ms, repeat period = 33 ms

Does the info I put up above help with creating a rule I can add?  I
am not even certain that a rule would help though.  I rebooted using a
more recent kernel (2.6.35.12-88.fc14.i686) and tried loading the
specific haupp keytable but when I do that, irw recognizes no keys.
This is what I did:

When I do this, I get the following output:
[root at localhost ~]#  ir-keytable -c -w /etc/rc_keymaps/haupp
Old keytable cleared
Wrote 46 keycode(s) to driver

 If I unload and reload the ir-kbd-i2c module, irw will recognize the
same keys it did when I originally loaded the module and not recognize
the same keys it didn't recognize before (but dmesg is showing me that
the system is recognizing all the keys).  Of course, if I try to load
a keytable at that point, I get the error "Not found device rc0"
because I have loaded it previously and as you noted, the rc device
moved to rc1 instead of rc0.
