[ltp] IR on T23?

[Tod Harter]

Yep, I had pretty much the same experience on the A20p, though without the 
initial 'chip version' nonsense. Once you get your original serial port out 
of the way you should be able to tail -f /var/log/syslog, get your remote 
device in position and see the kernel logging some messages. 

I don't recall the details off the top of my head now, but irLAN did require a 
few other commands to be issued, there is an ifconfig irda0 etc. If you need 
it I can dig up the file, I just haven't used it in a while...
