Ok folks, thanks to Jean first... that was really wierd what i did.
I studied the documentation and also the IrDA-Howto at mobilix.org. I tried to load FIR and SIR drivers for the IrDA hardware of my notebook. I changed the bios settings for the appropriate mode and tested it with the given drivers. FIR: (FIR enabled in bios) modprobe smc-ircc # no problems lsmod shows also "irda" and "irport" loaded after doing "modprobe smc-ircc". echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/irda/discovery irdadump shows nothing... SIR: (SIR enabled in bios, irq=3, port=0x02e8) modprobe irda modprobe irtty irattach /dev/ttyS3 -s 1 irdadump (shows nothing but my own pc) This is from /var/log/messages: Feb 7 15:40:02 kosig irattach: 1.1 Tue Nov 9 15:30:55 1999 Dag Brattli Feb 7 15:40:02 kosig irda: irattach startup succeeded Feb 7 15:40:02 kosig kernel: IrDA: Registered device irda0 Feb 7 15:40:03 kosig irattach: Starting device irda0 Feb 7 15:40:03 kosig irattach: executing: 'echo kosig > /proc/sys/net/irda/devname' this is from "dmesg": ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS03 at 0x02e8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A I also did a "setserial /dev/ttyS3 port 0x02e8 irq 3 uart 16550A" before modprobing the SIR drivers... I would be very pleased to get those SIR drivers to work, i don't need FIR, just SIR for syncing my mobile phone and my Palm.
