SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hai guys, 
I am having Toshiba Laptop A60-S430 . It has got a SMSC Fast infrared
Controller ( As reported in windows)

MY problem is that SMSC chip in my Laptop is troubling me..
I saw that smcinit is needed to make the chip work, and compiled and
installed the smcinit 0.4.1 and configured according to the
instructions.

For me FIR DOESNT WORK But SIR works...(details at the last)

MY PROBLEM STARTS HERE.........>>>>>>>>>
###########################################################################################################
Then i try to make use of FIR, FIR only works with SMCINIT,isnt it???

Details of my chip as reported in WINDOWS DEVICE MANAGER is, 

SIR I/O Range 03E8-03EF
FIR I/O Range 0220-227
IRQ 03
DMA 01
First Let me try module probing before INITIALIZATION 

debian:~# modprobe smsc-ircc2
FATAL: Error inserting smsc_ircc2
(/lib/modules/2.6.11.4/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smsc-ircc2.ko): No such
device
debian:~#

when i try smcinit with defaulted to 5100 model, I get

debian:~# smcinit
pcilib: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1f.0/config
smcinit IO hub vendor ffff not intel (0x8086)
debian:~#

But when i try tosh1800-smcinit, i get 
debian:~# tosh1800-smcinit
debian:~#
NO output both in console and Dmesg, 
So i thought it worked

Now again modules probing

debian:~# modprobe smsc-ircc2 -vv
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.11.4/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smsc-ircc2.ko
FATAL: Error inserting smsc_ircc2
(/lib/modules/2.6.11.4/kernel/drivers/net/irda/smsc-ircc2.ko): No such
device
debian:~#

and

in dmesg ,
agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:00:00.0 into 4x mode
agpgart: Putting AGP V2 device at 0000:01:05.0 into 4x mode>about my video card

debian:~#

I have given correct IO range IRQ DMA in /etc/modprobe.d/irda-utils
and /etc/modules.conf and /etc/modules/irda-utils
I have tried many and nothing works.
Please HELP

SUCCESS WITH SIR::::::::::::::::::

But i later came to know that SIR doesnot need the smcinit. 
I was able to work SUCCESSFULLY WITH SIR

SIR WORKS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
so when i look for tty ports on DMESG(there is no serial ports in this
laptop ), i get

debian:~# dmesg | grep tty
ttyS2 at I/O 0x3e8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A
debian:~#

So i do ,
debian:~# irattach /dev/ttyS2
debian:~#

Then when i do 
debian:~# irdadump
13:49:09.605408 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=0 (14)
13:49:09.695324 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=1 (14)
13:49:09.785311 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=2 (14)
13:49:09.875296 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=3 (14)
13:49:09.965282 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=4 (14)
13:49:10.055268 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=5 (14)
13:49:10.145255 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=* debian hint=4400 [
Computer LAN Access ] (22)

and when i point my SE K700i to the port, 

13:49:22.143432 xid:rsp a2a405e0 < 00001bbe S=6 s=5 K700 series
hint=9124 [ PnP Modem IrCOMM IrOBEX ] (28)
13:49:22.153426 xid:cmd a2a405e0 > ffffffff S=6 s=* debian hint=4400 [
Computer LAN Access ] (22)
and so on....

and i try sending 
debian:~# ircp scpt
Connecting...done
Sending scpt...done
Disconnecting...done

and then recieving 
debian:~# ircp -r
Waiting for incoming connection
Incoming connection
Disconnecting
debian:-# 

everything works perfectly with my K700i in Debian GNU/Linux.
