Greetings. I am new to the list.
I look forward to getting IRDA working, but for now I am
having a few problems and I have a few suggestions/changes:
I have a Toshiba Tecra 8000 (ToshOboe: Found 701 chip at 0xff80 irq 11)
I am trying to connect to a HP DeskJet 340 using the HP C3277A printer
dongle. Software is RedHat 6.0, 2.2.11, PCMCIA 14,
irda-utils-0.9.3-pre8.
The modules load, but when I try to ls >device I get the following:
# ls >/dev/irlpt12
ls: write error: Link has been severed
Trying lpd give jobs queued but cannot start daemon error....
The program irdadump reports that it found the printer:

17:53:28.040584 xid:cmd 23a7fc3e > ffffffff S=6 s=* whampton hint=0500 [

So for now, I am stuck.
I made the following changes to get the package irda-utils-0.9.3-pre8
to work:
irdaping, comment out:
//#include <net/if_packet.h>
/etc/irda/printer -- create the device, link to a "standard"
name that my printcap can use, change permissions so they
match other /dev/lp* devices, and then restart lpt:
rm -f /dev/${device}*
minor=`grep irlpt /proc/misc | awk '{ print $1 }'`
mknod /dev/${device} c 10 `expr ${minor}`
chmod 664 /dev/${device}
chgrp daemon /dev/${device}
MYDIR=`pwd`
cd /dev
ln -sf ${device} irlpt
cd $MYDIR
/etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd restart
/etc/irda/drivers -- add:
modprobe toshoboe
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers,
