You can check in /proc/ioports or in /proc/moodules if serial.o is loaded. To unclaim it type /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none Then try again to irattach irda0 -s 1. If you are using Debian, don't forget to adjust /etc/setserial.conf so you don't have it to do every time you restart. By the way, i'm using kernel 2.4.0-test5-pre6 Philipp _______________________________________________ Linux-IrDA mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www4.pasta.cs.UiT.No/mailman/listinfo/linux-irda
