That is, when you send "hello, world" over ircomm0, in reality over the IrDA interface is sent some framing info, CRC and so on. Much like sending data through ethernet - you always get 6+6+2 bytes of the Ethernet header, and even more if you're using IP. Run irdump and look.
What I've been asking is that if there's a way to have some serial device that sends through the USB dongle exactly the same bytes that are written to /dev/something. -- Greetings, Andrew ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
