Some phones (e.g. Nokia 6110) use | a subset of IrDA (IrCOMM) that makes this possible. You have to use gnokii | though to connect to the phone. Panagiotis is correct. As long as your IrDA port is detected as a sio, you can use this as your modem port. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | keichii@iteration.net | keichii@freebsd.org | | http://iteration.net/~keichii | Yes, BSD is a conspiracy. | +-----------------------------------------------------------+ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
