Hi !
I tried to configure the infrared device. But I do not get any
connection to it. So I fear that my IR-LED is out of order.
How can I prove it ?
I think when having the notebook near a IR-printer or a
mobile phone I should see some Informtion on these
items. Is it true ?
Thinking it does not make sense to try minicom as
long as there is no connection shown by irdadump, right ?
ciao, Ralf Bärwaldt
