ok. 8290 is recognized. great! using the default /etc/gnokiirc file that
it installed (i built an rpm from the spec file) and just changed the
port = /dev/ircomm0 and connectionn = irda

i also noticed that /usr/X11R6/bin/xgnokii is no longer and is actually
located in /usr/bin/xgnokii (great!)

Calendar now works (as it did not  in 0.4.2a and i didn't even try 0.4.3
yet).  I tested the calendar download and not the upload. I also see
"Groups" are now added to the "phonebook/contacts" applet. I tested the
phonebook download and not the upload yet.

xgnokii/gnokii now works much much faster. initlength is still set to:
initlength = default

The only really bad thing still is when setting the logo, gnokii still
fails with:

# gnokii --setlogo startup startup-logo.mine 
GNOKII Version 0.4.3
Lockfile /var/lock/LCK..ircomm0 is stale. Overriding it..
Error setting startup logo - SIM card and PIN is required
i: 170,  1 11
