You need to find out what signals your remote is sending to XBMC. Depending on how the remote works, it might be using LIRC or it might be emulating a keyboard. If you enable debug logging the log file will tell you what is going on.

Enable debug logging from System settings, System, Debugging, then press the OK button a few times, then press the Back button a few times, then disable debug logging again. Now look at $home/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log. You can either switch to a console or use putty if you prefer. Put a copy of the log on pastebin.com and paste the link here. From the log I shoud be able to tell you what you need to configure.

Oops, it's an ATV not unix. See http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Profile_Directory for the details. On ATV it's /Users/frontrow/Library/Application Support/XBMC

The remote is generating the log entry:

DEBUG: SDLKeyboard: scancode: 182, sym: 0, unicode: 0, modifier: 0

Did you press both the OK and Back buttons? If so they are both generating the same log entry. The remote is emulating a keyboard, which is very common for the cheaper remotes, but it's producing a very odd keypress. The scancode, i.e. 182 (hex 0xB6) identifies the key that was pressed, but I can't find any documentation for scan code 182. None of the lists of keyboard scan codes I can find mention it.

Basically your remote is generating a keyboard press that doesn't exist.
