Help text

Say Y here if you want to build support for the USB IrDA FIR Dongle device driver. To compile it as a module, choose M here: the module will be called irda-usb. IrDA-USB support the various IrDA USB dongles available and most of their peculiarities. Those dongles plug in the USB port of your computer, are plug and play, and support SIR and FIR (4Mbps) speeds. On the other hand, those dongles tend to be less efficient than a FIR chipset.

Please note that the driver is still experimental. And of course, you will need both USB and IrDA support in your kernel...
