OK, several things: 1) I see you have upgraded your kernel since the last error message. The error message was "FATAL: Error inserting nsc_ircc2 (/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/net/irda/nsc-ircc2.ko): No such device", So I assumed you had kernel 2.6.22.14-generic. We shall correct that by changing every occurence of '2.6.22.14-generic to `uname -r`
2) We need your PnP devices list to see if there is a chip capable of handlig the irda. The error you get from lspnp is probably because you should give acpi=off to you kernel parameter. See this link for more details (quickly found by Google): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/11276/comments/17 Because I don't have that Dell D820, I am guessing, but maybe you should use the `acpi` command to see the same thing if you don't want to change the kernel boot parameter? I fount this by searching for `apt-cache search acpi`. It doesn't work for me, because I don't have ACPI on my current Xubuntu system. 3) I don't know why you changed the "i" variable to "1" in the script I sent. 4) also this is the modprobe that should be executed with sudo, not cd. So once again, I will send you the updated script, and just try to paste it as it is, not changing things. It works for me, and it should work for you, as I tested it before submitting. Here is the code. cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/irda/; for i in *.ko; do sudo modprobe -v `echo $i | sed "s/\(.*\)\.ko/\1/g"`; done What the script does is changing directory to current kernel IrDA modules, and then trying to load all the modules found there. Sed is used to cut off the .ko ending and then this resilt is passed as a modprobe parameter to load it. The error you got is because you changed "i' to "1" -- irda-setup (irda-utils) does not detect irda chipset on Dell Latidude D820 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176386 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
