STUIRDA(4) FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual STUIRDA(4) NAME stuirda - Sigmaltel 4116/4220 USB-IrDA bridge support SYNOPSIS stuirda* at uhub? irframe* at uirda? DESCRIPTION The stuirda driver provides support for SigmaTels USB-IrDA bridges that nearly follow the bridge specification: SigmaTel ST4116 SigmaTel ST4210 SigmaTel ST4220 Access to the IrDA device is through the irframe(4) driver. Before accessing it, a firmware patch must be downloaded. At the time of writing this, it can be found at: http://www.sigmatel.com/documents/stir4210_4220_4116_patch_files.tar.gz Unpack the archive with tar -C /libdata/firmware/stuirda/ -xzf stir4210_4220_4116_patch_files.tar.gz SEE ALSO irframe(4), usb(4) HISTORY The stuirda driver appeared in NetBSD 5.0. BUGS stuirda needs the firmware for configuration, so it can't be loaded at kernel startup time. As a workaround, you can plug in the USB-IrDA- bridge after booting.
