Hi!
I have got IrCOMM to work when the BIOS is in FIR mode.
(I haven't tried FIR yet).
BIOS settings, FIR mode:
Base I/O address: 2E8
Interrupt: IRQ 3
Base I/O address: 118
DMA channel: DMA 3
Linux kernel is 2.2.16pre2
I got IrCOMM to work with Nokia 8210 and Palm Vx
(and that was my goal :-)
To get the smc-ircc to work a new chip needs to be added.
I found the needed information on the mailinglist.
The chip in the B110 is identified with FINDCHIP.EXE as:
Found an SMC FDC37N769 device @ 0x03F0, ID = 0x28, Rev = 0x01
SirBase = 0x02E8, IrqNo = 3, FirBase = 0x0118, TurnAround = 300 uS
SmcId = 0x10B8, IrccId = 0xF2, IrccRev = 0x00, DmaCh = 3
The article that helped me was:
Another SMC IR chip (Thomas Mark King [EMAIL PROTECTED])
http://www.pasta.cs.UiT.No/pipermail/linux-irda/2000-April/001308.html
The difference is that the Fujitsu B110 doesn't like the other settings
so I added the new chip first. Is there a way to specify which to use when
loading the module?
My /etc/irda/drivers looks like this now:
#! /bin/sh
#
# drivers
#
# Initialize and shutdown IrDA device drivers.
#
# This script should be invoked with two arguments. The first is the
# action to be taken, either "start", "stop", or "restart".
#
action=$1
device=$2
case "${action:?}" in
'start')
setserial /dev/ttyS3 uart none
modprobe smc-ircc
/usr/sbin/irattach irda0 -s1
/usr/sbin/irmanager
echo 100 > /proc/sys/net/irda/slot_timeout
;;
'stop')
killall irattach
killall irmanager
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/irda/discovery
rmmod ircomm-tty
rmmod ircomm
rmmod smc-ircc
rmmod irport
rmmod irda
;;
'restart')
/sbin/ifconfig ${device:?} down up
;;
esac
# END drivers
That makes it easy to run /etc/irda/drivers start or stop
Do /etc/irda/drivers start
and now /dev/ircomm0 is the serialport to use :-)
These two posts also helped me in getting things to work:
