I was looking for the devices to be created, and this version is like the previous
devices are ircomm, irnine, irlpt0,irlpt1, irlptd, irobex,
with major number 10,64,161
What I have really to do?
IR-HOWTO-25.html:mknod /dev/ircomm c 60 64
IR-HOWTO-4.html:``mknod /dev/irnine c 60 64'', which works like
IR-HOWTO-4.html:Note: ``mknod /dev/irnine c 161 0'' for newer versions! [WH]
IR-HOWTO-5.html:<P>A Perl script which loads a Linux/IrDA module and builds the
according device in /dev using
<CODE>mknod</CODE>.
IR-HOWTO-7.html:<LI><CODE>su</CODE> to root, and do <CODE>mknod /dev/irlpt0 c 161
10</CODE>. Note: Something
like <CODE>./MAKEDEV irlpt0</CODE> is not possible yet. But maybe <CODE>load_misc
irlpt</CODE> works, though I
couldn't test this yet.</LI>
IR-HOWTO-7.html:/sbin/mknod /dev/irlptd c 10 `grep irlptd /proc/misc|cut -f 1`
IR-HOWTO-7.html:<P>Please note: IrOBEX now is in user-space and uses IrDA sockets.
Remember that when using
sockets, you don't need to have irobex enabled in the kernel, and /dev/irobex is not
used anymore!The /etc/irda
script is really only good for configuration of the devices, making the right
<CODE>mknod</CODE> for /dev/irobex
etc., not for starting applications.
IR-HOWTO-7.html:<LI>Add a device file for the redirected IR device: <CODE>mknod
/dev/irnine c 161 0</CODE> , see
also /proc/tty/drivers.
IR-HOWTO-7.html:<LI><CODE>mknod /dev/ircomm c 60 64</CODE>
IR-HOWTO-7.html:<LI>mknod /dev/irnine c 161 0
IR-HOWTO-7.html:Next, make a device file <CODE>mknod /dev/irnine c 161 0</CODE>. Now
Linux/IrDA services can be
started as usual with <CODE>irattach /dev/ttyS? &</CODE>. /dev/irnine can be used
as a serial device.
<CODE>ircomm</CODE> and <CODE>ircomm-tty</CODE> modules will be loaded automatically by
<CODE>kerneld/kmod</CODE> when a program uses /dev/irnine. NOTE: I think
"setserial" utility will not
work on /dev/irnine. Tips:
