Sometimes you have to use setserial to assign your irda to a particular serial 
port.  For example on my Compaq Evo N600c I have to run:
===================================================
setserial /dev/ttyS2 uart none
/sbin/modprobe smsc_ircc2
irattach irda0 -s
===================================================

The syslog shows:
===================================================
Sep  2 14:01:19 lappy found SMC SuperIO Chip (devid=0x0e rev=01 base=0x002e): 
LPC47N252
Sep  2 14:01:19 lappy SMsC IrDA Controller found
Sep  2 14:01:19 lappy IrCC version 2.0, firport 0x100, sirport 0x3e8 dma=1, 
irq=3
Sep  2 14:01:19 lappy No transceiver found. Defaulting to Fast pin select
Sep  2 14:01:19 lappy IrDA: Registered device irda0
===================================================

However, findchip still does not find it.

Does your dmesg show anything? e.g. mine shows:
===================================================
found SMC SuperIO Chip (devid=0x0e rev=01 base=0x002e): LPC47N252
===================================================

Other laptops are more straight forward, but mine seems to be of the more 
difficult variety . . .
