Also, while I don't know anything about flirc....the remote found on section 2.3 of this wiki:

simply emulates keyboard commands and presents no problems with the chromebox. It is dirt cheap and works great with harmony remotes. The receiver is kind of ugly/outdated but it isn't all that hard to hide somewhere and has pretty good line of site.
I probably wouldn't be happy about pulling my expensive flirc (if I had one) to put in some cheap chinese remote/receiver but sometimes a couple bucks is better than a few hours, you know?

I believe you are correct re: the Intel driver bugs. We just need to be patient until new drivers are released.
For remotes, a Flirc *should* work, but if you're buying something new I'd recommend a genuine MCE remote/receiver, rather than one which just emulates a keyboard. Here's one from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KDNIRYA/ and here's the receiver only for Harmony users (and what I use myself): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ZGHZ1G/
