I already started on something like that, partly as a joke.. but there are some timing issues. In the end, it does need to be a device driver, since IrCOMM at least should be providing "fake" serial ports. Anyway, I'm quite interested in this, though my free time keeps fluctuating wildly. The one good thing about it is that the standards are generally available. -- Christopher Masto Senior Network Monkey NetMonger Communications chris@netmonger.net info@netmonger.net http://www.netmonger.net Free yourself, free your machine, free the daemon -- http://www.freebsd.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
