The model number is on a label at the back of the stick (at least, mine have it).

The in-kernel lirc support need a new version of LIRC since a few ioctls numbers were changed,
to avoid needing to write a code in kernel to handle compatibility between 32 and 64 bit kernels.
If you're running a 32 bits kernel, it may work.

Btw, you don't need to use lirc if all you want is to replace the IR keycodes. You can use, instead,
the ir-keycode program, available at http://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git. There are several keycode
tables already mapped there. Of course, lirc offers some extra features.

Cheers,
Mauro.
