[Wylug-help] Linux and GPRS^h^h^h^hIRDA

[simon]

Hi all,
Thanks for the useful information on GPRS, I'm now having grief with
IRDA.

I've managed to build the IRDA stuff for the kernel and get something
working but I've come a little unstuck trying to actually communicate
with the phone (It just works in Windoze ;-).

I've patched the nsc-ircc to stop it complaining about chip's version
number and disabled the serial driver control of SIR with 'setserial
/dev/ttyS1 uart none'

I can view '/proc/net/irda/discover' and see my phone, hell I can even
'irdaping' it. However I can not establish a serial console link to the
bugger (/dev/ircomm0).

Any suggestions?
Simon.

PS Bluetooth dongle looks more and more appealing, but will probably be
just as painfull.
