Better red, than dead. - Unknown AuthorEss
This document is based on the "How to use" part of the Linux/IrDA project homepage. I also included material provided by the Linux/IrDA core team, the Linux/IrDA mailing list and other sources.
The document is included in the LINUX DOCUMENTATION PROJECT.
The latest version of this document is available at LiLAC - Linux with Laptop Computers .
Mathieu Arnold <> provides the IR-HOWTO in French .
The latest kernel I used is 2.2.3 and the latest irda-utils version is 0.8.8 .
I tried to check all information but I don't have all the necessary infrared hardware yet, so if something doesn't work for you, please don't blame me.
Please feel free to contact me for comments or questions about the HOWTO. I know this material is not finished or perfect, but I hope you find it useful anyway. For other questions and current information about Linux/IrDA please ask in the Linux/IrDA mailing list as explained below.
