That is right. The "unknown key" gives a hint for your keymap. After you
define all keys, you should fully enjoy your remote control.

The keys are emitted via the evdev subsystem, so the remote control behaves
like a normal keyboard (when you press "1" you should see "1" on the console
too). Either you will learn your application to directly understand the key
presses (just change it's keyboard shortcuts), or you can use the lirc's
devinput driver (it reads keypresses from evdev) and do it via lirc. It's up
to you.
