I have no FIR in my AMIBIOS. Only a Serial IR that I set to auto
for the IRQ/MEM settings.

I have made a test
SIR disabled : no ttyS03 detected
SIR enabled (auto) : ttyS03 detected
So, the ttyS3 seems to be my SIR :-)
ttyS0 is my db9 serial connector
ttyS1 is my PCMCIA modem card
ttyS2 is unknown but I have a winmodem in my laptop !:-)
it's not configured in linux but !
ttyS3 seems to be my SIR
"irda start" works if I put the irdadev to ttyS0 !:-|
Do I have to insmod other driver like
- toshoboe.o
- smc-ircc.o
- nsc-ircc.o
???
