It was said here a few days ago that irport was kinda broken and it was safer to stick to irtty for now, and I decided to switch back to using irtty (2.4.19pre4-ac2). Suddenly all my problems got back, the first one being getting my syslogs full of:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: irda0: transmit timed out irda0: transmit timed out NETDEV WATCHDOG: irda0: transmit timed out irda0: transmit timed out (which I dont get with irport) and second, and the most annoying which seems to indicate something really broken, if I have a scp session going over the IrDA link to my phone (with ppp to my machine on the net, usually to get todays catch of assorted ac-patches, 2.5 series dj-releases, etc) there i absolute NO way that I can run fetchmail (retrieve mail via POP3), as it will return within a few seconds with a socket error (-2). This behaviour was not there when using irport. Same goes for running HTTP/DNS when runnin scp on the link, I can not look up any names to get IP numbers and browse a page (slashdot, lwn.net, etc) as long as the scp runs. What can I do to provide better documentation of this and what would you guys in here like to see to get a better understanding of what goes on? ttfn, A -- Alexander Hoogerhuis | [EMAIL PROTECTED] CCNP - CCDP - MCNE - CCSE | +47 908 21 485 "You have zero privacy anyway.
