I recently got a Toshiba 3005, and it has a smc-ircc chip. Here's the settings I'm using: alias irda0 smc-ircc options smc-ircc ircc_dma=3 ircc_irq=3 ircc_fir=0x6f8 ircc_sir=0x2f8 Works fine for copying files to my palm via obex. Still working on getting PPP to the palm to work, though. findchip doesn't recognize it, by the way. -- - Jason When you don't know what you are doing, do it neatly. _______________________________________________ Linux-IrDA mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pasta.cs.UiT.No/mailman/listinfo/linux-irda
