Abid, Look in /lib/modules/2.4.25/kernel and find sir-dev.ko It could be in another dir like /net/irda under the same path. If it is present then do modprobe sir_dev For the BIOS configuration, ACPI function needs to be disabled : BIOS CMOS Setup Utility -> Power Management Setup -> Set ACPI function to disable Regards, Vinio -----Original Message----- From: ird...@li...

Subject: Re: [irda-users] IrDa problem: PPP connection between two linux s ystems Hi Vincent, Thanks for replying. I am using serial IrDA device with 9 pin DB connection. It can communicate upto 115200 bps(Maximum limit). For such device do I really need Bios support and what other module support do I need. How I can get those modules etc. My purpose is to establish a ppp link with it.
