lsmod didn't show any irda modules, but insmod irda works.

Nothing about irda is shown by dmesg  8-?

I've had a look at the modules tree and found ircomm, insmod'ed it and now 
lsmod shows:
- -------
ircomm-tty             22240   0  (autoclean)
ircomm                  8552   0  [ircomm-tty]
irda                   96016   0  [ircomm-tty ircomm]
- -------

And ps shows:
- -------
[root@quinipt /]# ps -ef | grep irattach
root      2984  2903  0 18:21 ttyp0    00:00:00 grep irattach
- -------

To test I'm running "pilot-xfer -p /dev/ircomm1 -l", having tryed with no luck 
with /dev/ircomm0/1, /dev/ttyp0/1

Maybe despite modules load fine the irda hardware is not supported?  8-?  Hope 
not...

Thanks!  ;)
