Sometimes you have to use setserial to assign your irda to a particular serial |
| 10 |
port. For example on my Compaq Evo N600c I have to run: |
| 11 |
=================================================== |
| 12 |
setserial /dev/ttyS2 uart none |
| 13 |
/sbin/modprobe smsc_ircc2 |
| 14 |
irattach irda0 -s |
| 15 |
=================================================== |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
The syslog shows: |
| 18 |
=================================================== |
| 19 |

However, findchip still does not find it. |

Does your dmesg show anything? e.g. mine shows: |
| 31 |
=================================================== |
| 32 |
found SMC SuperIO Chip (devid=0x0e rev=01 base=0x002e): LPC47N252 |
| 33 |

Other laptops are more straight forward, but mine seems to be of the more |
| 36 |
difficult variety . . . |
