BTW: A setserial /dev/ttyS1 port 0x0 irq 0 solves this on my thinkpad - The
serial drivers releases the io/dma/irqs immediatly ...
My current bootup script (Debian/GNU/Linux 2.1 -> /etc/rc.boot/irda)
looks like this ...
-------------schnipp------------------------
setserial /dev/ttyS1 port 0x0 irq 0 uart none
modprobe nsc_fir
ifconfig irda0 up
echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/irda/discovery
-------------schnapp------------------------
