[plug] IrDA - Finding support

I have a motherboard with a VIA P4M266 chipset - how the frell do I find 
out what driver I need to get the IrDA working? Everywhere just lists 
the IR functionality as "1xIR Port, IrDA 1.0/FIR supported".

Am I being overly optimistic about IrDA support for this board? I 
managed to get all the other on-board stuff working no problems...

Any hints & tips on getting IrDA working would be appreciated.

The board is part of a SFF case 
(http://www.chyangfun.com/Product/CF-S868.htm), which has the IR on the 
front panel - so it'd be really nice if I could get it working. 
Ultimately I want to use it with lirc.
