[solved] LIRC + MCE Remote not working

I have a Mediagate GP-IR02BK USB MCE remote / receiver.

Back in 2009 I got it working by doing the following:

$ sudo cp /usr/share/lirc/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
$ sudo modprobe lirc_mceusb
$ sudo /etc/rc.d/lircd start
$ irw

I am trying to configure it again but I can't get it working:

$ sudo cp /usr/share/lirc/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
$ sudo modprobe mceusb 
$ sudo /etc/rc.d/lircd start
$ irw

This time I get only some of the buttons working (like volume, arrow keys and enter), but they don't show up like this:
000000037ff07bfd 00 Two mceusb
000000037ff07bfd 01 Two mceusb

It was as if I actually pressed those buttons on my laptop.

Any help would be great.

SOLUTION: ir-keytable -p LIRC
