The first part is correct. But why do you say that IR-210B won't work with 
gnokii
infrared driver?

Did you read Docs/gnokii-ir-howto?

But why do you enable Linux-IrDA?

Are irda modules *unloaded*? Even better is to try it with recompiled kernel

Could you please try latest CVS?

Two things:
 - unload/disable all linux-irda related things.
 - use latest cvs, there were fixes in the nk6100 driver after 0.4.3 release.
