I just got a new Motherboard and was looking over it
I noticed this one (my old bad one had this too but I never 
took notice) it has support for an IR port
I supose this is basically a communmications port
that uses infra-red devices instead wire cables
Can this be acessed through linux? is there support fo rit?
has anyone played with it yet?
I am really curious as to whether it is just like another comm port
or what
I would really love to play with it eventually
(who knows might get alaptop someday...)
also..as fo rthe "cool features I see"
is there USB suport yet? (course..I know there is hardly any
hardwar ethat uses USB...)
hmm back to the IR....
anyone know how that is controlled?
could thr right software maybe use the IR port to record 
signals from a TV remote and spit them 
back on demand ? or does the hardware not offer that level of
control over the signal ?
