Status of IrDA?

From: Uwe Steinmann <hidden>

Hi,

not too long ago somebody posted patches to make IrDA work on a
PowerBook using kernel 2.4.12-benh. Did these patches ever made
its way into a recent benh kernel? The last kernel looks like they
were not included but also had some changes which won't allow
to use the patches for 2.4.12 anymore.

All I got so far, was some promising output from irdadump, but
connecting to my phone with minicom by using ircomm0 failed.

Any chance to make IrDA work on PowerBooks?

Fixes were done differently, but were included. The current
bk PPC kernels (or my rsync tree) should have working irda.
