o Yes I think Inspiron 7000 is using the SMC chipset. But be prepared to do
o some development. Don't use it if you don't mean it ;-)
I'd love to, if you help!
o Have you tried irda-utils-0.9.9/findchip?
Silence of the lambs.
o alias tty-ldisc-11 irtty
o alias char-major-161 ircomm-tty
Always had that.
o alias irda0 smc-ircc
Hmmmmm! Funky. Do I need it only for FIR mode or
did I always need that alias on the Inspiron?
o ... if you do a depmod -a after inserting this into your /etc/conf.modules,
o then the ircomm-tty module will be automagically loaded when you access
o char-major-161.
o
o dagb-home ~/ > ll /dev/ircomm0
o crw------- 1 dagb 161, 0 Dec 22 14:15 /dev/ircomm0
Have that, too.
o Do you see the connection now?
o -- Dag
Yep. However, when people do irattach /dev/ttyS?,
and then pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyS? that, they don't
access /dev/ircomm0 -- how the heck does irda know
why load ircomm-tty?! Some people here said they
do pilot-xfer -p /dev/ircomm0, but others do
/dev/ttyS?. Does irattach /dev/ttyS? make it the
same as /dev/itcomm0?
Which options exactly do I have to pass to SMC in
FIR mode? Your line above has none. Is that OK?
I'm sending a bottle of premium St. Emilion to
the person whose lead will prove decisive in
making Palm V HotSync with Inspiron 7K. :-)
