make · 03-17-2006, 01:40 AM

I have a cheap (10 $) IrDA USB-dongle, which does not seem to be supported in Mandriva 2006. Does anyone know, if there would be a Linux-driver for this thing? Couldn't find anything during hours of Googling.

Code:

$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 07d0:4959 Dazzle

Code:

$ cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#=  4 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0

P:  Vendor=07d0 ProdID=4959 Rev= 1.00
