Sorry, doesn't work, after the ifconfig the whole system crashes.

After I do some research in the mailing list, I learned that I have a Sharp Uircc 
Chipset. The driver for never left the expirmental stage. So there is no fir support. 
That is not a big problem for me, I only want to hotsync my palm, which only supports 
SIR.

The problem with irport is, that the IR-Device is a pci device, so the interrupts an 
ports under windows ar not identical with linux. Maybe it could be configured with 
pciutils, but I dont know how.

Ciao, Dirk
