I think in hindsight and further digging, probably this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/141622 is the issue I am faced with instead, which suggests my particular version of the card requires a patch since there is no evidence of a device in /dev/input for the remote.
It seems evident from that bug report the patch never made it upstream, so I will pursue that, again thanks for the reply.
Thanks for the reply Mario.
