OZ 3.5.1 how to beam ?
« on: November 08, 2004, 05:48:27 pm »
After a week of running OZ3.5.1 (and several flashing operations), I'm very pleased :-)
Almost everything works (sometimes with some fiddling, hence the 'unstable' status).
I was jsut wondering how to activate IR beam ?
The IR applet does not seem to do anything on my SL-5600.
Do I need a special app/module ?
Then after that, is there any option to beam a file or contact in OPIE ?

Thanks,
Brice

install openobex-apps
it seems openobex-apps is not part of the OZ feed ?
There is only libopenobex...
Can I build it with OE (I don't have the environment at home to verify).

On a side note, it seems to lack lirc-modules too.

Thanks,

Brice

irda applet does nothing on my 5600 as well.  do we really need to find openobex-apps (seems hard to find).

so the release notes say we can get the irda-common*.deb and utils pkgs.  got those, but then what?  ipkg doesnt install them.

Ninsei, can you beam files back and forth between the Z and something else? or are you using the IRda port for something else?
