[tlinux-users:07698] Re: Infrarred and remote control

Hi ursus and others,

Could you elaborate on which hardware and software configuration are you 
using to achieve remote control of the laptop? Please, provide versions 
of kernel, kernel modules and software and any parameters that may be 
involved (even if you do not provided). Don't need to post any 
configuration file that may exist in my distribution.

Cheers,
	Manuel.
