True, though I think some users still prefer using them with the lirc drivers 
for assorted reasons. Configuring something like mythtv to work with the 
ati_remote{,2} driver appears to be a bit more complex (or at least non-
standard vs. several other popular remotes) and not as functional vs. 
configuring mythtv w/lirc_atiusb.
