Using lsusb, the dongle in question identifies itself as: ID 050f:0180 KC Technology, Inc. KC-180 IrDA Dongle
When I used Debian Etch, the device /dev/irda0 was automatically created and all worked out of the box. After upgrade to Debian Lenny, the udev-created device changed, due to some mysterious reason, to /dev/ttyUSB0 and now the dongle does not work out of the box (does not connect to my cellphone using 'ircp -r' unlike in the Etch era). Does anyone know what changed and what&how to change so that it'll work again? Thanks, --- Omer -- Delay is the deadliest form of denial. C.
