Hi everybody,
I've been testing LinUX IRDA in 2.2.14 with an ESI JetEye PC and
syncing with a Palm V via IrCOMM works just beautifully, up to
115200bps using jpilot.
It was rather a problem though that /dev/ircomm0 wouldn't work as
mknod c 161 0 like one would assume for a 2.2.14 kernel but rather
mknod c 60 64 which should apply for 2.0.x kernels. This is at
least what /proc/tty/driver states:
IrCOMM_tty /dev/irnine 60 64 serial
Also I needed to start irmanager in discovery mode via -d 1,
which the Debian init script unfortunately does not do.
Anyway, the ESI JetEye is just for trial but I still have this ole
Adaptec AIRPort 2000 around here which is supposedly supported in
LinUX IRDA. Now none of the dongle types (tekram, esi, actisys,
girbil, litelink) seem to work, so how to I go about to establish
communications with the AIRport ?
Regards,
