Dear Claudiu, first of all thank you for your answer.
I would like to try your hint, but I thought I had toshoboe in my kernel as a module already. However, I still have a couple of doubts on kernel configuration and on modules.conf. Hereafter I show you my configuration: ------------------------------------------------------------ KERNEL 2.4.10 configuartion =========================== Below is my kernel configuration. All "m" are loaded as modules, all the rest is not loaded. IrDa (infrared) support ----------------------- m IrDA subsystem support m IrLan protocols m IrNET protocols m IrCOMM protocols infrared-port device drivers ---------------------------- m IrTTY m IrPORT m Toshiba Type-O IR Port What about: SMC IrCC (Experimental) ??? /etc/modules.conf ================= alias char-major-161 ircomm-tty alias irda0 toshoboe ------------------------------------------------------------ Actually, I see in /var/log/messages that toshoboe is loaded, but is says also: "invalid IO or IRQ parameters". My feeling was that the module is loaded, but for some reason it has problems on the IO (PCI?). Further, in my kernel 2.4.10 there is a: "SMC IrCC (Experimental)" flag to set at "xconfig" time. Since my PC has a SMSC chip, could it matter?
