For those of you who are struggling with this I can confirm that the winfast 
DTV1000T remote (serial no Y0400052) can be made to work reliably with gutsy 
(7.10). The two issues that need to be tackled are
1- Fix the cx88 module by Updating to the latest V4L driver
2 - recompile kernel with timer frequency = 1000hz

Lirc does not have to be used as the remote is accessible directly via the 
event layer
I believe the V4L driver has been incorporated into the 2.6.23 kernel so this 
problem will be fixed for Hardy
The time frequency setting change is however a bigger issue as if hardy is also 
released with the default timer set to 250 and no easy way to change this 
setting it will still require a kernel reconfiguration. This spills over into 
recompiling restricted module as well if you need to use a propriatory driver 
(i.e for Xvmc support etc).
