probably your serial driver has got hook on the io port and irq, so the
ir-driver cannot initialize. If your serial driver is built as module
(lsmod shows a line with "serial" in it), you could load the nsc-ircc
driver before the serial driver.

Another way is to run

setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none

before installing the nsc-ircc module, which will deactivate the serial driver
on the second com port (assuming it is your actual ir-port).


I hope, this will help
