Hi,

there is the comms/birda port. You might have a look at it, but I
remember that it only supports serial IR ports (those headers found on
mainboards where you can switch the serial mode to IRDA in BIOS).

What happens if you attach your usb device? Does FreeBSD recognizes
anything different than an "ugen"?

Regards
Markus
