Hallo, He is my configuration, It took me 4 weeks until it was usable. But now it works perfect for me. Don't forget to set you locale, if you want to get non-ASCII characters from gnokii!


# modprobe irda
# modprobe ircomm
# modprobe ircomm-tty
# modprobe irtty
# modprobe tekram

if you have the dongle on com1 as I have:
# /usr/sbin/irattach /dev/ttyS0 -d tekram -s

optional: turn on infrared on n6210, get it close to the dongle and run:
# irdadump

That's all, you can use gnokii. I have: 2.4.18 mandrake, tekram 210B, n6210


PS: my gnokii.conf:
[global]
port = /dev/ircomm0
model = 6210
connection = irda
initlength = 1
bindir = /usr/local/sbin/

Hi!

I'm new here just because of that I've just bought IrDA. Unfortunatelly, I
bought exactly notorious Tekram IR-210B. So, can anybody tell me whether
does Gnokii work with it or it doesn't? There are conflicting words in the
source texts/readmes about it: some of them that Tekram is the only
incompatible device (happy I am!), and the others that it finally works with
some mysterious patches. My phone is 6210 and Gnokii responds something like
"Cant' initialize".

First of all, I made the little corrections in gnokii/gnokii.c:

As I didn't study Gnokii sources in details, it was the best I could invent,
but, naturally, it doesn't work. I thought I missed something important. Can
anybody help or it's better to bring IrDA back to the shop?

Sincerely yours,
