Hi, somehow I can't get IrDA to work on my Fujitsu B110 laptop. I am using SuSE Linux 7.0 with either Kernel version 2.2.16 or 2.4.2 and have installed the latest irda-utils, but I even fail in using SIR. Can anyone please give me a hint what I'm doing wrong? Björn Rhoads says in his mail (http://www.pasta.cs.uit.no/pipermail/irda/2000-May/000064.html), that the B110 uses a SMC FDC37N769 chip which is not recognised by smc-ircc or findchip. His hardware resources (io, irq) are exactly the same as on my computer (SIR io=0x2e8, irq=3 => /dev/ttyS3, FIR io=0x118, dma=3). I think at least SIR should work, because the ir-chip behaves like any serial port... so no special driver should be necessary. When I'm trying the tips from the "IR-DRIVER-TINY-HOWTO" (http://www.pasta.cs.UiT.No/pipermail/linux-irda/2000- April/001360.html), I get the following results: (with FIR disabled in the BIOS) # irattach /dev/ttyS3 -s Obviously works fine, loads the "irtty" and "irda" modules, the network device "irda0" can be seen with ifconfig, but does not find any irda-devices (I am using the Siemens S25 phone) (in /proc/net/irda/discovery), and also minicom cannot communicate with the S25-modem (/dev/modem = /dev/ircomm0). Normally, under Windows, I can also see the Ir LED flashing, which is also not the case under Linux. (with FIR enabled in the BIOS) # setserial /dev/ttyS3 uart none # modprobe irda # insmod irport io=0x2e8 irq=3 Using /lib/modules/2.4.2/kernel/drivers/net/irda/irport.o # ifconfig irda0 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: Resource temporarily unavailable # irattach irda0 -s 1.1 Tue Nov 9 15:30:55 1999 Dag Brattli => Only "irport" and "irda" modules are loaded. Or if I try: # modprobe smc-ircc /lib/modules/2.4.2/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smc-ircc.o: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.2/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smc-ircc.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.2/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smc-ircc.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.2/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smc-ircc.o: insmod smc- ircc failed My /etc/irda/drivers looks like (as decribed in the mail of Björn Rhoads): [...] case "${action:?}" in 'start') setserial /dev/ttyS3 uart none modprobe smc-ircc /usr/sbin/irattach irda0 -s echo 100 > /proc/sys/net/irda/slot_timeout ;; [...] Thanks, Christoph _______________________________________________ Linux-IrDA mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pasta.cs.UiT.No/mailman/listinfo/linux-irda
