	Don't mix up things. IrDA (Infrared Data) and Infrared Remote
Control are two very different beasts and are not compatible with each
other (different wavelength).
	The Howto gives pointers to the LIRC project that specialise
in Infrared Remote Control.
	If you want to use IrDA, I would advide to use the Ultra
protocol (to minimise bloat on the stepper side). You can find a few
IrDA hardware links on my web page.

	Good luck...
