I've been trying to get 2.2.14 with the 2.2.14 patches, irda-utils-0.9.8 
running on a P-II with a JetEye dongle.

One person reported that it works fine for them, yet I cannot see how.

Among the problems I've found:

in the utils, irattach.c, the variable "fir" in function main (line
308 or so) is declared, but not given a value before it is tested in
line 373.

Lots of ioctl calls don't get their return values checked, so the
program fails without any indication of what went wrong.

This is a real pisser:

in irattach.c, we see this line:

#define IRTTY_IOCGNAME   _IOR(IRTTY_IOC_MAGIC, 2, struct irtty_info)

where irtty_info is 20 bytes long.  Yet in the kernel source, in
include/net/irda/irtty.h, the same definition reads:

#define IRTTY_IOCGET     _IOR(IRTTY_IOC_MAGIC, 2, struct irtty_info)

No wonder irattach was not starting up.

Well, I fixed these things, and there appears to be traffic being sent
to the JetEye dongle, but something is still wrong with it; the LED on
the dongle is not blinking (like it used to when the discovery process
was on), and ircomm is still not working.

Help?
