OK, I probably did some "bad things" here.
But this is what I've done...
1) dselect -> purge -> irda-common, irda-utils
2) rm /dev/ir* (removed all these various irda related device references)
3) dselect -> install -> irda-common, irda-utils
(left the configuration file /etc/irda.conf alone, it looked about right)
4) ran 'dpkg-reconfigure irda-common' and did not edit the
/etc/irda.conf file.
5) ln -s /dev/ircomm0 /dev/pilot (references)

But I can not get any modules loaded according to lsmod...
syslog keeps dumping irattach: tcsetattr: Input/output error
I'm seriously bummed on this one. I had it working a few weeks ago just
fine. But my old notes for setting up jpilot don't work at all anymore.
I'm a little lost on this.
Since I have nothing, I will try anything.
BTW: I have an IBM A21m and a Palm Pilot V
