I have the drivers for a Keyspan serial adapter installed, but I don't
have the device itself plugged in. In OS X, there is no Infrared
control panel. The only place that seem to have control over IR is the
Network control panel. I tried opening the OS 9 Infrared control panel
from within a Classic application, but I got the "That application or
control panel is not supported by Classic" error. I really don't want
to have to reboot into OS 9. :(
