Acer extensa 5220 irda not working

[twinkel1961]

Hi

I can not get irda to work.
lsmod shows the nsc_ircc alright.
I stopped /etc/init.d/irda-setup and irda-utils
now when i start irda-setup: i get:
/etc/init.d/irda-setup: line 76: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
/etc/init.d/irda-setup: line 77: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
/etc/init.d/irda-setup: line 83: setserial: command not found
/etc/init.d/irda-setup: line 84: setserial: command not found[/FONT]

and syslog shows:
nsc-ircc 00:0a: in use; can't configure

irda-utils shows:
Starting IrDA service: irattach.
and in syslog:
irattach: executing: '/sbin/modprobe irda0'
irattach: + FATAL: Module irda0 not found.
irattach: Trying to load module irda0 exited with status 1
irattach: executing: 'echo twinkel-5220 > /proc/sys/net/irda/devname'
irattach: executing: 'echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/irda/discovery'
irattach: Starting device irda0
irlap_change_speed(), setting speed to 9600

in /etc/default/irda-utils I have:
DEVICE=/dev/ttyS1
dongle="none"

Can anyone help me to get this working please?

Hi
I had acer extensa 5220 with xubuntu 8.04. I had problem with hardware. I reinstalled the system to ubuntu 8.04.1 and it works well now. IrDa to.
