Guess you don't have the latest tools like automake, autoconf, libtool
etc. I'm using:

automake-1.4
autoconf-2.14
libtool-1.3.3

I think I would first try to print from the Newton to Linux. Try to do
something like this (using Linux-2.2.14-irda1)

1. cat /dev/irlpt0 > newton.out

2. print something from the Newton to Linux

3. cat newton.out

4. check if what you received was the same thing as you sent.

PS. /dev/irlpt0 should look like this:

crw-r--r--    1 root     161,  16 Nov  5 08:36 /dev/irlpt0
