So, as you've probably guessed, I'm a bit new to this. I don't have any
/dev/input/event0. Nor do I have any event0 in anywhere under
/dev. Looking at /proc i get this:

# cat /proc/bus/input/devices

..snip

I: Bus=0001 Vendor=1461 Product=0771 Version=0001
N: Name="bttv IR (card=123)"
P: Phys=pci-0000:02:0b.0/ir0
H: Handlers=kbd
B: EV=100003
B: KEY=fcb10 100040 0 0 0 0 2018000 180 1 9e0000 7bb80 0 0

But, once I have found my device, should I set up lirc even though the
remote seems to send key events already? Or maybe I should ask the
basic question; How do I get the events to be useful for Myth?

Thanks,
