Hello, I don't know exactly what driver you need for your hacked adaptor, but i know you need to load your driver module, and then use irattach daemon on it. after that you can use 'irdadump' to see if it's getting anything. if it works than you can use ircomm-tty or whatever your application needs (i think if you get here that the Linux IRDA HOWTO will be really helpful).
