Hi Dave,
I went thru the same exercise as you did. I spent 4 days and was into some serious reconfiguration of these files to get it to work. There must be an easier way. Any help would be great.

Hi, I am trying to compile the irda utils for the first time and am having some problems. I am running RedHat 6.0 with kernel source and headers 2.2.5-22. I have irda-utils version 0.9.4. The compilation goes fine until it hits irdadump. Then it runs into problems with including linux/irda.h. The ir-howto (from february) i have mentions that this might be a problem and says to include some definitions. I did this, but it appears that things have changed since then and it uses more kernel definitions. I tried just showing it where the current irda.h file is (/usr/src/linux/include/net/irda), but that just lead to more problems. After hacking out pieces from a couple of ir header files andplacing them directly in the irdadump code, i managed to get it to compile. Next it went on to obex and had similar, but more serious problems that hacking couldnt fix. Is it that I need to patch the source code? If so, which patches do I need? Or is there something obvious that I am missing? Also, I am using a gateway solo 2500. If anyone knows any of the IR specs for this machine, I would appreciate it. My routing around has only revealed that it does indeed have ir (whew!), ir is on ttyS1 and that it has FIR of some sort. Thanks, David
