Hi, there is a new issue of the InfraRed-HOWTO available in different formats: HTML http://tuxmobil.org/howtos.html SGML http://tuxmobil.org/howtos.html IPK feed for PDAs http://tuxmobil.org/feed.html Please note these URLs have moved from mobilix.org to tuxmobil.org because of severe trademark trouble with Asterix and Obelix. A documentation of the trademark case is at http://tuxmobil.org/mobilix_asterix.html The Infrared-HOWTO provides an introduction to Linux and infrared devices and how to use the software provided by the Linux/IrDA project. This package uses IrDA(TM) compliant standards. IrDA(TM) is an industrial standard for infrared wireless communication, and most laptops made after January 1996 are equipped with an IrDA(TM) compliant infrared transceiver. Infrared ports let you communicate with printers, modems, fax machines, LANs, and other laptops. Remote Control (RC) via infrared is the aim of the Linux Infrared Remote Control - LIRC project, and also described in this HOWTO. A note to Jean: I have not finished the re-ordering of the HOWTO according to your recommendation yet. But I'm on the way. Also I have asked to get the document into CVS at the Linux Documentation Project. But I haven't got an answer yet. Werner Changes: - v3.5, 29 March 2003, - added new dongles to /etc/modules.conf, - added link to IrCOMM2k, - added links to LIRC progs (lircemu, tonto), - added some more infos about OBEX, - removed a misleading reference to setserial, - removed obsolete IrLAN stuff (irlan_client, irlan_server modules), - added warning about IrLAN currently unmaintainded, - corrected wrong issue date of v3.4, - changed all URLs from mobilix.org to tuxmobil.org and other URL corrections, - converted whole document to XML 4.1.2 (all tags are now lowercase, some closing tags added), - rearranged the order of some chapters (SIR, FIR, dongles), - chapter about cell phone connection rewritten (added link to scmxx, added generic instructions, thanks to Matthias Schmidt), - added chapter about connections to PocketPC (thanks to Stanislav Sokolov), - minor changes -- |=| Werner Heuser = Keplerstr. 11A = D-10589 Berlin = Germany |=| <wehe at tuxmobil.org> T. 0049 - (0)30 - 349 53 86 |=| http://TuxMobil.org UniX on Mobile Systems: HOWTOs,Software |*| This is no time for phony rhetoric -- Lou Reed
