make sure not to buy USB infra-red dongle which has SigmaTel chipset. configuring it is pain in the a** and it doesn't work smoothly all time. how to recognize is by plugging it in a linux machine and monitoring /var/log/messages. it should not display SigmaTel. more information is available on irda.sourceforge.net and tuxmobil.org/Infrared-HOWTO/Infrared-HOWTO.html o--------------------------------------------------o | vivek * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://exain.net | | Registered Linux User: #305493 | o--------------------------------------------------o ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
