It was not clear that you have irda modules unloaded.

I don't think so, but this is rather linux-irda mailing list question.

I'm quite lost in what you are saying. But if it answer your question, you need 
to
connect to the phone at 115200. It won't work otherwise. And as 6150 does not 
have
the build-in modem, minicom won't work, and will show some garbage. This is the 
FBUS
communication and you need a software (eg. gnokii) to understand it.
