Hi all,
I used to run RedHat 7.2 and irda worked fine. However, the other day I
"upgraded" to 7.3 and irda no longer works.
I'm not running the kernel that comes with RH7.3 but my own compiled
kernel (the same kernel I ran with 7.2 and everything worked).
I start irda using the RedHat /etc/init.d scripts, which ends up
executing "irattach /dev/ttyS1 -s". I have my laptop (ASUS L8400B) BIOS
configured to have SIR on port 0x2f8 irq 3.
Here is some system information below.
As you can see from the output below, irdadump shows some kind of
packets (I'm no expert but I'm assuming its my laptop device polling for
any IR devices in range), however if I try to sync my palm Vx with it
nothing extra shows up in irdadump (it used to) and the sync connection
times out.
Any help appreciated.
