# extra magic to make ir port sync'ing work
/usr/pkg/bin/irs -c -Y -y /dev/ptyqf -d /dev/tty00

I've got the above magic in /etc/rc.local to allow my Palm to sync
with JPilot on i386 1.5.x NetBSD.  Works fine.  

I remember reading that a better solution is available on 1.6.  Can
anyone point me at the manpage that describes the new way of handling
this?

Thanks in advance,
