Hi,
And yuck :( I'd prefer to have something operational such that I can bring the
laptop/phone on a travel starting tomorrow. Would it help to downgrade to e.g.
2.2.13 and some earlier IrDA-patch? If so, then which is the newest
configuration that you can reccomend?
Thanks for your answer, by the way. It's apprecuated.
