newbie question on IrDA & Nokia 6510

[Akos Maroy]

Hi,

I'd need some quidance for connecting to a Nokia 6510 through IrDA. This 
is the first time I'm using the IrDA interface on a PC.

I managed the give life to the IrDA stuff by modprobes and then

irattach /dev/ttyS1 -s 1

it the syslog it went:

kernel: IrDA: Registered device irda0
/etc/hotplug/net.agent: assuming irda0 is already up
irattach: executing: 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/irda/discovery'
irattach: Starting device irda0
irattach: executing: 'echo destroy > /proc/sys/net/irda/devname'


after that I can run irdadump, it dumps the following endlessly:

11:21:31.247646 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=0 (14)
11:21:31.337647 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=1 (14)
11:21:31.427653 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=2 (14)
11:21:31.517654 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=3 (14)
11:21:31.607643 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=4 (14)
11:21:31.697644 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=5 (14)
11:21:31.787646 xid:cmd 2b987813 > ffffffff S=6 s=* destroy hint=8404 [ 
Computer IrCOMM ] (24)


I can try

irdaping ffffffff

and then the dump will contain lines like:

11:21:59.367674 test:cmd ca=0xfe pf=1 2b987813 > 00000000 (32)



So far so good. I'd like to connect to the phone with gnokii somehow. 
I've set up /etc/gnokiirc:

port = /dev/ttyS1
model = 6510
connection = irda


the other settings were left untouched. Then:

# gnokii --identify
GNOKII Version 0.4.0pre20
Couldn't open PHONET device: No such file or directory
Telephone interface init failed! Quitting.


and nothing happens. Also, there is nothing 'new' in the irdadump output 
either. Seems like gnokii is not even using the IrDA device?

Any help would be apprieciated.
