What kind of remote is it? Plug it in and run the "lsusb" command and post the output.

Patch is available but nobody seems to want to merge it upstream: http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/usb-yurex-recognize-generalkeys-wireless-presenter-as-generic-hid.patch
Any hope to fix it?
Whoops, changed the component on the wrong bug. The patch Chuck pointed to went into the 3.1 kernel. Current F15 updates should already have that.
