Hi,

still confused with my Actisys 210L.
This is connected to a 5pin IrDA header on my
Asus P2BF board.
Is it a dongle or not?
In the docs and kernel help it is pointed out
that a dongle is connected to a 9pin serial
interface. This is not the case.
Is it a dongle, is 
irattach /dev/ttyS1 -d actisys -s 1 correct?
is it not a dongle, is
irattach /dev/ttyS1 -s 1 correct?

anyway, have no success with both versions.
Using 2.2.13 with irda23
made /dev/ircomm0 and /dev/ircomm1
and ldisc and ircomm-tty in conf.modules, and
the actisys module.
PC-BIOS is set to use COM2 as IR-Device.

Irdadump shows nothing.
Getting all Irda-Kernel-Messages, all modules loaded, but no
discovery-Message (or is this obsolete since the newest patches)

Then, after a while getting a kernel message
something like "assertion failure...irdadevice.c...line 178",
repeated many times. (This is new since a few days i played with that,
heck, don't know, i think since i installed newer irda-utils)
(i'm not at home at the moment so i haven't the complete message, but
i can post it this evening if this would be useful)

With an unpatched 2.2.13-13, irdadump shows me the "Siemens S25" and my
box,
and the kernel reacts on moving the s25 away from the "dongle" (???) 
but no connection possible.

Carsten ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), how do you use the actisys? as dongle? say, loading
the actisys a module? (Got mine from "Schiwi", do we have the same 210L ?)

I hoped to go further with a 2.3.xx kernel and the irda patch for that.
Tried to make a 2.3.34...this bitch won't compile (error in main) after
menuconfig. Other guys from irc compiled it somehow but it hangs after
boot.

I'm stuck.

Heiko
