irda problems with kernel 2.6.16-1.2069_FC4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am running Fedora FC 4 on an Acer TravelMate 290. Usually, when I can't connect to the Internet using wifi or ethernet, I use my IR port (ttyS2) to connect through my GPRS phone, using the GPRS Easy Connect (gprsec) application. This has always worked fine, even back when I was using FC3.
 
I recently upgraded from kernel 2.6.15-1.1833_FC4, from 2.6.15-1.1833_FC4. Using the new kernel, I cannot connect. I get an error saying /dev/ttyS2: no such file or folder. When I run
 
$ dir /dev/ttyS*
 
it shows me that ttyS0 and ttyS1 exist, but not ttyS2 (or ttyS3, which has always existed under previous kernels).
 
It's not an /etc/sysconfig/irda issue, I've already checked that and the file has not changed.
 
Anyone else run into this? Any suggestions on how to fix it?
