I have only toyed around with the linux-irda software and the serial
IR adapter from PuMa Technologies that came with the camera. This is
the status. I am using linux 2.0.33 and the latest linux-irda... If I

the adapter starts talking to the camera. /var/log/messages says that
SONY-DSC-F1 was found, but no service is started. (Please note, this
probably doesn't apply to the 2.2.x kernel versions of Linux/IrDA,
[WH]).

communication with the camera via cable: (1) chotplay and (2)
stillgrab. They both take a tty as commandline option, so I guess that
they should work if the irtty layer of the protocol stack works
correctly ... I have not looked at anything in the linux-irda code,
yet!). I am not sure whether I understand the stack but shouldn't the
irtty make the thing look like a normal tty? What service should be
started. "

, you will see that it is a protocol which is implemented above IrCOMM (not IrTTY!).
IrTTY is something we use just to be able to talk to the Linux serial
driver. "
