I have been using gnokii with a nokia 6110 over the infrared port of my
laptop for about 1 1/2 year now. Never a problem. But read the
documentation!!(gnokii-ir-howto) It does NOT work with IRDA but with the
SIR protocol.

The laptop is a Gerricom and in the configuration menu of the laptop I can
choose different settings for comm B. I think SIR is called ASK IR in the
configuration menu.

So for me, after setting the laptop up to use the SIR protocol on
the infrared port, /dev/ttyS1, my ~/.gnokiirc reads:

[global]
port = /dev/ttyS1
model = 6110
initlength = default
connection = infrared
bindir = /usr/local/sbin
use_locking = yes
serial_baudrate = 19200

[sms]
timeout = 30

(everything else commented out.)

I did not test the latest version, the last time I downloaded the CVS was
Oct 4, 2003, but never had a problem with any of the versions I tried.

BTW still problems with CVS? I tried to download the latest a few days ago
but got a time-out.
