I don't think it's one like you said, I saw somebody said he used this remote with lirc!
with dmesg I have:
usb 5-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3
usb 5-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0609, idProduct=0338
usb 5-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 5-2: Product: MCE RECEIVER Emulator Device 2006
usb 5-2: Manufacturer: SMK CORPORATION
usb 5-2: SerialNumber: TA090114093949D
usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Thank you very much for your help!
