Public bug reported:

Apologies if I'm not following customary guidelines, but I was in the
process of looking for the Upstream Tracker for Irda-Utils trying to
cite a bug in the package. Unable to find said Tracker, I am uploading
this bug to LaunchPad.

To use the IrCP-Tray for OBEX beaming and receiving files with a cell-
phone, I must edit "/etc/default/irda-utils" and set AUTOMATIC="true"
(and reboot). I cannot use "sudo irattach." Upon doing so and rebooting,
my PC will have a functioning IrCP-Tray (on /dev/ttyS1), but the Wacom
device will no longer function.

Using "setserial -g /dev/ttyS[0123456789], ttyS4 (the usual port for the
Wacom) will be listed as "invalid." Upon restoring /etc/default/irda-
utils, Wacom service is also restored. I can edit other values in that
file with impunity (such as modifying "DEVICE=" or "MAX_BAUD_RATE=")  as
long as AUTOMATIC="false" (or is commented out) and it will not affect
the Wacom functionality (but the Infrared functionality will remain
inactive.)

The hardware is a notebook tabletPC, model Toshiba M200 with nVidia
NV34M [GeForce FX Go5200 32M/64M] chipset (via lshw -c display). The OS
is Ubuntu 11.04. The Wacom takes up ttyS4, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x0338,
IRQ: 4.

My irda-utils file is listed as such:
ENABLE="true"
AUTOMATIC="false"
DISCOVERY="true"
DEVICE="/dev/ttyS1"
DONGLE="none"
SETSERIAL=""
USE_SMCINIT="no"
MAX_BAUD_RATE="115200"
