With the new in-kernel drivers lirc is no longer needed, and no daemon is needed to use our remotes. Assuming this is what's happening to you, you may find some useful and to the point information about how to use the new drivers instead of lirc in this thread:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=114124
Among other things, now you can use "ir-keytable -t" to see the commands your remote is sending, instead of irw.
I haven't found a good comprehensive guide for migrating from lirc to the new drivers anywhere, which is quite surprising.
Of course if your problem is unrelated to the new kernel drivers, ignore this post :)
