This is the old 2.6.12 patch (which works up to 2.6.15), isn't it?

Please try with the patch I sent to this ML for the T43.  You *will* have to
give it the io=0x2f8 dma=1 irq=3 dongle_id=9 parameters.

Prior to loading nsc-ircc, make sure nothing is using the ports. grep -i
2f8 /proc/ioports will tell you if the serial stuff is doing so.

What preemption mode does your kernel use?
