IBM UltraPort Infrared AdapterThis is a Infrared Adapter for the IBM UltraPort. It can also be connected to any USB port by using the included cable. This adapter is especially useful for X20 and X21 ThinkPads, since they are not equipped with IrDA ports by default. Features

Linux driver
This adapter works with the irda-usb driver of 2.6 type kernels. To enable it, follow these steps:
Enable USB support:
- CONFIG_USB → <M> → Support for Host-side USB → USB support → Device Drivers
- CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS → [*] → USB device file system → USB support → Device Drivers
Choose an appropriate USB host driver, one of:
- CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD → <M> → ECHI HCD (USB 2.0) support → USB support → Device Drivers
- CONFIG_USB_UHCI → <M> → UHCI HCD support → USB support → Device Drivers
- CONFIG_USB_OHCI → <M> → OHCI HCD support → USB support → Device Drivers
Enable IrDA support:
- CONFIG_IRDA → <M> → IrDA (infrared) subsystem support → Networking support → Device Drivers
- CONFIG_IRLAN → <M> → IrLAN protocol → IrDA (infrared) subsystem support → Device DriversNetworking support
- CONFIG_IRNET → <M> → IrNET protocol → IrDA (infrared) subsystem support → Device DriversNetworking support
- CONFIG_IRCOMM → <M> → IrCOMM protocol → IrDA (infrared) subsystem support → Device DriversNetworking support
Finally, enable the irda-usb driver:
- CONFIG_USB_IRDA → <M> → IrDA USB dongles → Infrared-port device drivers → Networking supportIrDA (infrared) subsystem support (Device Drivers)
Compile your kernel with these options (don't forget # depmod -ae) and reboot or just load the relevant modules (usb, usb-ehci/usb-uhci/usb-ohci, usb-storage, irda, irlan, irnet, ircomm, ircomm_tty, irda-usb). Attach the IrDA adapter to the UltraPort, if not done already.
Do a # cat /proc/bus/usb/devices to asure yourself that your IrDA adapter is recognized by the USB subsystem.
