Hi!

I'm missing the 'big picture' of the irda-implementation...

What is creating the netdevice irda0? irattach or irtty.o?
Between what is irattach handling?? Does it communicate between (e.g.)
litelink.o and /dev/ttyS2 (on my computer)?
How does it talk to litelink.o (where is the device-file)??
Or is it directly communicating between /dev/ttyS2 and irda0? - So for
what do I need litelink.o?

Where is irdadump listening? On irda0?? Why is irdadump working when
there is no irda0?
Should I see everything what my dongle is receiving? Even when the
dongle uses a different baud rate (How can I change the rate)?

What I did:

# insmod irda irtty litelink
# irattach /dev/tts/2 -d litelink -s
(I don't need any /dev/ir* special devices so far, do I?)

I can see the LED on the dongle blinking because of the
discovery. (But I can make it also blink with "echo hi > /dev/tts/2".)
When I give my IrDA watch the command to send I should see something
with irdadump, shouldn't I??


Thanks for help!

Bye,
        Robert
