On my Compaq laptop:
[root@movingviolation irda]# dmesg |grep tty
ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
ttyS02 at 0x03e8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
As root, I:
[root@movingviolation irda]# mknod ircomm0 c 161 0
[root@movingviolation irda]# ls -la /dev/ir*
crw------- 1 root root 161, 0 Mar 20 21:05 /dev/ircomm0
I run:
irattach /dev/ttyS2 &
irmanager -d 1
I get this:
[root@movingviolation irda]# tail /var/log/messages
Mar 20 21:14:34 movingviolation irattach: Serial connection established.
Mar 20 21:14:34 movingviolation kernel: IrDA: Registered device irda0
Mar 20 21:14:39 movingviolation irmanager: executing: 'echo 1 >
/proc/sys/net/irda/discovery'
Mar 20 21:14:39 movingviolation irmanager: executing: 'echo movingviolation >
/proc/sys/net/irda/devname'
All looks good, so far (afaik).
My palm pilot can sense the port trying to do discovery. It's
'Waiting for Sender', and the IrMonitor program I have installed
(Very cool!) registers the signal.
linking /dev/pilot to either /dev/ttyS2 or /dev/ircomm0 doesn't
work, though.
Can you see anything I missed, or fouled up?
Thx for any help,
Evan
