irda
Necessary tools for the usage of the infrared port

This package contains all necessary scripts and programs to setup and
use the infrared port for printing or communicating. The start/stop
scripts are prepared to access the UART emulation (so called `SIR'
mode) with 115 kbit/s data transfer rate. This is supported by the most
notebooks with infrared interface.
After starting the infrared protocol manager `irmanger' with the
command `rcirda start' you can send data to your printer by using the
device file /dev/irlpt0. If you like to talk to other computers with
infrared interface or to a mobile phone you can use the serial
emulation provided by the device file /dev/ircomm0.
Please take a look at the README file located in
/usr/share/doc/packages/irda/README and into the IRDA HOWTO which is
located in /usr/share/doc/howto/en/IR-HOWTO.gz. If the infrared port on
your notebook is located on a different IO or IRQ address then IO
address 0x2f8 (/dev/ttyS1) or interrupt 3 you should use yast to change
the variables IRDA_PORT and IRDA_IRQ in the configuration file
/etc/rc.config.
