The linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0 tarball has a utility to check input events.
There's also a utility around at bytesex.org. I had working ir events
myself with a nova-t (mod 909) with the drivers in kernel 2.6.7, but
lost them when upgrading to dvb-kernel current cvs drivers.

Check out linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0/util/av7110_loadkeys/evtest as

evtest ./dev/input/event2 (try several numbers to find the one for the
ir sensor on your card).
