I downloaded the birda source which was referenced from the Netbsd port.
I had to make only a tiny patch (#include <sys/types.h>) which I
submitted back to the Author. Besides this birda works great for me. I
sucessfully synced my Palm m505, and dialed up with ppp via my SH888
(mobile phone).

I'm doing this on my Sony Vaio 505. FreeBSD already recognized the irda
port as a serial port on /dev/cuaa2.

CU,
