I've been using this remote for some time. Just about everything worked out of the box on Intrepid, but when I downgraded to Hardy due to the multithreaded video decoding issue, Stop and Play buttons no longer worked properly. Something to be aware of.
Also, if you hit any of the A B C or D keys at the top of the remote, it'll drop you to the console (TTY1 - 4). While that rarely happens to me, last night I dropped the remote in the middle of a movie and ended up having to reset the machine as a result (I'm considering physically deactivating those buttons on the remote).
Aside from that, I have mapped some of the extra buttons to some scripts, context menu, etc. I'll try and post my Keymap.xml when I get home tonight.
