i don't know the reason but is there a serial port conflict? if you try to look into the /etc/irda/drivers file and set the right port for for it. and also the right irq and dma channel on your bios and also the right /dev/ttySxx port to your right irq and dma on /etc/serial.conf file. hope this will help. sorry i no more ideas since i haven't used my irda a long time. > The end result is that my braille-display software looses connection to > the display itself.
