Hey, Thanks for the information that was really very helpful. Let me tell you more what i have understood about the resolution that i got from the page. 1st --- I have to download openOBEX ( i'm not sure if its there with Mandrake linux 9.0 ) 2nd -- I have to compile the xconfig. i dont know if this needs to be done after downloading openOBEX or before ( this is independent or dependent on openOBEX ). 3rd -- where is the infrared application and how do i start it or it automatically start when the linux system us restarted after completed the steps 1 - 3. If somebody has prior experience doing all this please provide inputs. Thanks and Regards, Rohit Shrivastava.
