I don't think that you can use irda, but there's another way that should 
work just fine. Have a look here and in the references in the thread:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=6317457

The ir-kbd-i2c driver is included in the kernel sources without the need 
for patches now, if you get something newer that 2.6.3 or somewhere in 
that area
