Hi, I have been having some problems getting the Ir device on my laptop working. The device is listed as serial port B and a FIR device in BIOS, the laptop motherboard is an Intel 855pm (the Ir device is onboard). dmesg shows that the device is detected and listed as a serial device. Because BIOS listed it as serial port B I am assuming it is sio1; sio0: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 onacpi0 sio0: type 16550A sio1 port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 drq 1 on acpi0 sio1: type 16550A I have installed birda and can run irs. When I type the follwing irs starts but when I use my mobile phone to search for a device or send a file the phone reports 'No device found'. irs -v 1 -e -c -y /dev/ptypv -d /dev/cuaa1 I do not understand why this is happening as I have specifiede the 'c' option so irs runs as a COMM server. I also set 'y' to use a psudo terminal. Do I need a specific application like pilot-link for palm to communicatate over the Ir link that irs has initiated? Thanks, caleb -- There is no spoon.
