Hi, I would appreviate if users of the via-ircc driver could try the patch I've just uploaded on my web page ("VIA speed change fixes"). I don't have the hardware, and those need to be tested. Thanks. Jean |

I even sort of sucsesfully compiled this new module, but after modprobe via-ircc dmesg shows: divert: not allocating divert_blk for non-ethernet device irda0 IrDA: Registered device irda0 (via-ircc) change_dongle_type = 0xe00,0 Warning: dongle_id 0 unsported ! via_ircc_net_open I always got the first two lines in 2.6.8.1 kenel, but the rest is new. I even tried with dongle_id=0x09, but no luck It looks that irda stack is running, but my phone could't be discovered. I know that we first need a clean patch, but maybe those additional information will help you somehow. I'll be glad to help you from the users POV, because I am not a programmer. Thanks, Ales |

The patch works for me and it appears to fix the problems I described in my message earlier this year: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=4516131&forum_id=4987 I can successfully synchronize with my HandEra 330 without the need for manual timing from my side (watching an irdadump and counting the seconds to catch the right moment for a connection attempt). Hurray! The tests were on a linux 2.6.8.1 kernel, although I applied the patch to the 2.6.7 tree and then patched that tree to 2.6.8 and 2.6.8.1. Maybe that's the reason why my patching succeeded while Ale's didn't? Anyway, I will report any problems I encounter, but the first tests were very promising. Definitely a big improvement. Thanks!
