Hmm, let's see. This is on my TiBook:
pooh:~# uname -a
Linux pooh 2.4.18-rc4-benh #4 Tue Feb 26 19:18:30 CET 2002 ppc unknown
Mar 10 15:37:16 pooh kernel: tty01 at 0xc9905000 (irq = 23) is a Z8530 ESCC (IrDA)
pooh:~# ll /dev/ircomm*
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 161, 0 Mar 5 15:19 /dev/ircomm0
pooh:~# head /etc/modutils/irda
alias tty-ldisc-11 irtty
# The following is for new kernel.
alias char-major-161 ircomm-tty
post-install irda echo '57600'>/proc/sys/net/irda/max_baud_rate
pre-install ircomm-tty irattach /dev/ttyS1 -s
This works OK; I may need to start twice when the settings don't get
applied in time on insmod. After that, I can talk to the 6210's modem
with minicom attached to /dev/ircomm0.
Cheers and good luck
Michel
