Hmm, I don't think it is a dup of #46947 (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/46947) as in my case, I get the same OOPS but I am using the sir_dev module and not the nsc_ircc.
I am using also Linux version 2.6.15-23-686 (buildd@rothera) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 23 14:03:07 UTC 2006.
My hardware is a Acer TM4651LMi. If I work with SuSE, the IRDA sir_dev works fine.
Atached is the error file from dmesg/logs.

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this linux-source-2.6.15 kernel bug to the new "linux" package. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Also, if you would be interested in testing the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release, it is available at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . Please let us know your results. Thanks!
