If this is the only problem, then I could get the idea that I could just set
bit 5 - Infrared Enable in the UART 2 Miscellaneous Register at 0x(FF)FFF918
instead of calling SerControl with serCtlIrDAEnable. Of course this action
will only be called under PalmOS 4.0.0.
I have tried this (also on UART1) to see if it worked, but without luck.
Is there more involved in enabling IrDA?
