Hello ALL


I am trying to connect my Palm to the notebook via IR port
I hav read IR-HOWTO but still have problems.

This was my first experience with IR at all
so I started with windows. It turns out that
Windows is willing to communicate with IR devices 
over COM4, and my BIOS can be set to COM4 (port 2e8 irq 11)
I configured things this way and was able to make HotSync
with Palm's soft for windows choosing COM4 just as
did it with a cable over COM1.

Then tryed to do the same with linux. Linux software (pilot-xfer)
worked fine with ttyS0.

I configured ttyS3 as port 2e8 irq 11 (manualy, but autoconfig does 
the same)

But I linux soft just wait on ttyS3 while I tried to start
transfer. If I cat /dev/ttyS3 instead of running pilot-xfer
I saw some regular garbage.
I don't know if I need irmanager and irattach
but I tried them too. I use /dev/ircomm0 
but it didn't help. There even no garbage in it.
But I saw "serial connection established" in the log
after I started irmanager and irattach.

Can sombody give me advise?

thanks
