Hi everybody...
A few weeks ago, I was complaining that the timming in the
Actisys dongle driver in Linux IrDA were absurd. Today I received my
batch of Actisys dongle, and guess what, I could not make it work with
Linux IrDA.
So, I wiped out the initialisation code and the code to change
speed in the old driver and replaced it with something simpler, faster
and more robust. I have to thanks Lichen Wang from Actisys who sent me
a nice e-mail detailing the secret of their dongle.
Anyway, the result is a new dongle driver that work for me.
Enjoy...
Jean
