Not if you nail it down with an udev-rule:
/etc/udev/rules.d/010_own.rules:
KERNEL=="event*", SYSFS{name}=="AT Translated Set 2 keyboard",
SYMLINK+="input/remote", MODE="0666"
And in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf:
DRIVER="dev/input"
DEVICE="/dev/input/remote"
Yes, "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" doesn't really look unique but
that's the only string that my FB-Receiver in my S100 gives back.
Nonetheless it works for me as the real keyboard that I sometimes
connect via USB has a different name.
