The irman Driver
The irman driver allows you to use the IrMan IR remote control to control the LCDproc server LCDd and/or clients that can handle input.
The keys are mapped according to the following table:

Mapping between LCDproc keys and IrMan commands
LCDproc key	IrMan command
Up	lcdproc-Up
Down	lcdproc-Down
Left	lcdproc-Left
Right	lcdproc-Right

If you have trouble using the irman driver, you might try the lirc driver. lirc supports IrMan as well.
