Hello,

I use ubuntu with linux-image-2.6.15-23-k7 and I have an AMD Athlon k7 with an irda device I made on the motherboard (in BIOS irda replace ttyS1(com2:)). It used to work with previous linux distribs (SuSE, Mandrake) and under Windows.
With Ubuntu 6.06 it doesn't work anymore.
When I start "irdattach /dev/ttyS1 -s" (I use SIR mode with irtty module) then few seconds after that my PC freezes.
Last message is:
irlap_change_speed(), setting speed to 9600

Anybody could help me?

Thanks
Luca
